Just wondering how many people out there have had surgurey for a buldging disc? I've got a slight buldge at the L5-S1. It's not un-barable but I can't go for a jog, or really do any heavy lifting without it being really sore for the next couple of days afterwards. I know my doctor isn't for the surgurey because of the risks involved. However, I don't know what the success rate for that surgurey is. On one-hand, I realize it could make it worse. On the other hand, I'm only 25 and don't really want to be limited in terms of physical activity for the next 50 years. Anyone have any advice?
