Hi,
I have bulging disc also L1/L2 L4/L5 L5/S1. The only thing that helped me was putting me on the rack.
That would be the electronic traction where it pulls on your body to releive pressure for about 15 minute sessions 2 or 3 times a week. Had it done several times over the years. You notice a little relief after the first visit, but after a few weeks you can usually tell. Lasted about 6 months for me. Of course you have to do other exercises to help keep it up. Hope this helps a little.
Take care,
Dennis
