WHAT IS a lumbar disc bulge?
A lumbar disc bulge, also known as a herniated or slipped disc, occurs when the soft, gel-like centre of a spinal disc pushes through a weak spot in the disc’s outer layer. This can cause the disc to bulge outward, potentially putting pressure on nearby nerves and causing pain, numbness, or weakness in the lower back, legs, or feet.
If you are experiencing symptoms of a lumbar disc bulge, it’s essential to know that there are effective treatment options available, including advanced injection therapies offered by specialised clinics like London Bridge Regen Clinic.
Symptoms of lumbar disc bulges
- Lower back pain: This may be a dull ache or a sharp, shooting pain that worsens with movement or prolonged sitting or standing.
- Radiating pain: Pain from a lumbar disc bulge can radiate down one or both legs, sometimes reaching the feet or toes.
- Numbness or tingling: A herniated disc can cause numbness, tingling, or a “pins and needles” sensation in the affected area of the legs or feet.
- Muscle weakness: In some cases, a lumbar disc bulge can cause weakness in the legs or feet, making it difficult to walk or stand.
If you are experiencing any of these symptoms, it’s important to consult with a healthcare professional for an accurate diagnosis and appropriate treatment plan.
Treatments for a lumbar disc bulge
At London Bridge Regen Clinic, we offer two advanced injection therapies for lumbar disc bulges:
- Prolotherapy injections: Prolotherapy involves injecting a solution of dextrose and local anaesthetic into the affected area of the lower back to stimulate the body’s natural healing response, strengthening and repairing damaged tissues.
- Prolozone injections: Prolozone is a regenerative injection therapy that combines ozone gas with nutrients and vitamins to stimulate healing and reduce pain and inflammation in the lower back.

Husband received injection for torn rotator cuff. What an amazing result after 1st injection. Pain free and able to move arm again. Thank you Jon for your skills and giving him back his quality of life. Definitely recommend.
October 2023 - Steve H. | Shoulder Bursitis
Had fluid on the bursa of shoulder went to John. Free consultation gave me an ultra sound and then administered inject again whilst using ultra sound to make sure delivered in correct area. ( nhs were just going to eyeball it ). John also gave advice on rehab measures and said come back in 5 weeks to check on progess.
August 2023 - Anneliese C. | Hip labral tear
I booked in with Jon with a consultation around a month ago for a hip labral tear. Then had my injection with guided ultrasound today and it already feels alot better. I have to say Jon was amazing!! He informed me more than the hospital did regarding my results I had showed him. Jon is friendly, welcoming and professional. The ladies on the front desk are lovely too. 100% recommending Jon to everyone. I wish I had found him sooner as have been waiting on the NHS since January to get this done. The injection was done with great care and was over before I realised. So thank you sooo very much Jon!!
July 2023 - Sarah D. | Shoulder bursitis
After paying a lot of money and over 6 months of pain (not even being able to carry a shopping bag) for Physio with no improvement, I went to see Jon after 1 injection for my bursitis, and the correct exercises I am almost back to 100% with little or no pain Highly recommend, the aftercare is first class - if I had any other problems I would go and see Jon first.
