Glad you’ve got it sorted. Don’t know if I’d lift weights again after going through that. I hope I can sort mine without surgery

Tbh, surgery was the best thing that happened . Not sure anything else would have fixed it in my case. I'm much stronger now than I was before popping my disc.
As I said in my first post, I'm not saying you have an issue with a disc. But that the symptoms you've had could indicate one, and as such to be sure before you return to training.
Whatever the issue is I hope you get it sorted soon, back pain really does suck. Disc based or not I'm sure you'll get back to full health

Mine had totally prolapsed rather than being just bulging. I had surgery to have it removed and a cage and bone graft inserted in its place. Recovery was pretty fast and pretty easy.
All better now, with no long term issues. Lifting weights with no problems, though it did take quite a while to build my back strength and mobility up.
