Best Answer

Means that the discs in between your vertebrae in your "L" or lumbar or lower back have squeezed out a bit. In-between you discs you have squishy fluid like substance that helps cushion when you walk, run and pretty much do anything with your spine. Sometimes when you either lift wrong, twist or compress your back those squishy discs can protrude outwards. Sometimes causing a nerve to be pinched or your vertebrae to rub together, bone on bone. It is not a good thing and you should see a Dr. or chiropractor.
