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.

What is a Broad disc bulge?
A broad disc bulge refers to a condition in which the intervertebral disc protrudes outward beyond its normal boundary, affecting a wide area of the disc's circumference rather than being localized. This can occur due to degeneration or injury and may compress adjacent nerves or the spinal cord, leading to pain, numbness, or weakness in the surrounding areas. Broad disc bulges are often identified through imaging studies like MRI or CT scans and can vary in severity. Treatment options typically include physical therapy, medication, or, in more severe cases, surgical intervention.

A broad-based 4 or 5 mm right foraminal and extraforaminal disc protrusion refers to a condition where an intervertebral disc bulges outward at a width of 4 to 5 millimeters, specifically towards the right side of the spinal canal and the area where spinal nerves exit (foramina). This type of protrusion can compress nearby nerves, potentially leading to pain, numbness, or weakness in the areas supplied by those nerves. It is often identified through imaging studies like MRI and may require conservative treatment or, in some cases, surgical intervention.
