I'm dealing with some dizziness and recently got a cervical spine MRI. The results showed a bulge in c5 c6, but there's no nerve compression. Should I be worried about this, and what kind of treatments are available? Also, I'm experiencing a stiff neck on the left side.

A bulging disc at C5-C6 without nerve compression is usually not a major cause for concern, but it can cause discomfort, dizziness, and stiffness. Physical therapy, good posture habits, and self-care (heatcold therapy, pain relief) are common treatments. However, if you continue to experience persistent symptoms, its important to follow up with your healthcare provider for further management and to rule out other potential causes of your dizziness.

I've always struggled with vomiting whenever I'm traveling in a bus or car, ever since I was a kid. I noticed it doesn't happen when I'm riding a two-wheeler, auto rickshaw, or train, though. Currently, I use Avomin tablets to help me sleep so I don't vomit during these journeys. I'm really curious why this happens and if there's a better way to handle it. Is there something more I could do to manage this without relying on medication?
