welcome to Health care magic.
1.Disc bulge means, the disc which is suppose to be in between the vertebrae bulges out.
2.The bulged out disc will cause the compression on the spinal chord and nerves.
3.Due to the nerve compression, it causes numbness in the hands and fingers.
4.Reversal of the curvature is seen when the muscle gets stiff due to the pain/discomfort caused by the above causes. Muscle will be stiff and cause loss of the normal curvature.
5.If the cause gets treated the curvature will setback to normal.
Hope it helps you. Wish you a good health.
