A herniated disc is also referred to as a slipped, rupture, bulging, or protruding disc.
Disc bulges are characterized as focal or broad based. Focal means that less than 90 degrees of the disc is protruding outside of the radius of the vertebrae. Broad based means that 90 to 180 degrees of the disc are protruding outside of the vertebrae. The protruding discs are located in the lumbar region.
A more commonly used term for a bulging disc is a herniated disc. This ailment may also be referred to as a slipped disc, ruptured disc, or protruding disc.
When a vertebral disc is partly protruding or becomes displaced, this is known as a slipped disc. It presses on some of the nerves nearby and can cause a great deal of Back pain. Sometimes surgery is required, followed by physical therapy.

It depends on the severity and the vertebral level. You may consider Bowen Therapy from a qualified registered therapist. I have been virtually pain free since 1999 from a bulging disc at L4/L5 after Bowen Therapy. I resisted surgery on advice of a surgeon.

A broad herniation means that at least 25% of the disc is affected. A central herniation means that the herniation is toward the spinal column. A broad central herniation of the disc with impingement on the thecal sac is a herniation in which a large portion of the disc is protruding toward the spinal column and is pressing against the membrane which surrounds the spinal cord.
