This may be a stupid question, but have you visited a chiropractor? My chiropractor has fixed a lot of things on me. It just takes quite a bit of time. Better than surgery IMHO.
Once a bulging disc impinges on the chord and/or the nearby nerve, ain't no manipulating your way out of it. All you can do is find a good surgeon and come up with a plan.

Nerve pain is ****ing brutal.

In fact a chiropractor adjustment could kill you or put you in a wheel chair for the rest of your life… the bone spurs, herniated material could really injure the cord during an adjustment…

When I woke up after my first operation, the surgeon told me the disc bulge was far worse than what the MRI showed. He said it burst open like a jelly donut and was creating even more pressure on the nerve/chord than when the images were taken. He used some nifty tool to crunch bone out of the way so he could get at it.

I got lucky with some really hot nurses and not one fruitcake. Karma finally delivered.

Side view and top down axial view. Pretty gnarly… in the top down and side you can see the cord being pressed on.

There is too much money at stake for Gruden to not be sacrificed if he wins his case.
