Was does moderate desiccated disc bulge mean?

A moderate desiccated disc bulge refers to a condition in which the intervertebral disc has lost some of its moisture (desiccation) and has bulged outward beyond its normal boundary. This can occur due to aging or degeneration and may put pressure on nearby nerves or the spinal cord. While it can sometimes be asymptomatic, it may also lead to pain or discomfort in the back or neck, depending on its location. Treatment options vary based on symptoms and severity.
