Is this really true?

I have both a protrusion (bulging disc) and an extrusion (ruptured disc). After two hours with the neurologist my understanding is that the extruded disc needs to be "metabolized" - it needs to go away. Exercise and healthy lifestyle helps with that. Doctor also mentioned enzyme supplements, though she said it was her opinion. As for the herniated one - exercise, taking care of your back ("healthier" sitting, changing positions, correct sleeping position etc...). Surgery should be considered as a last resort (they might have to break part of the vertebrae to get to the disc). To surprise of nobody, these recommendations help me feel better.

Funnier fact: spinal disc problems might be (and in my case are) the culprit

What is a thermostatic faucet? A faucet that supplies water of constant temperature?

I like them because they are much quieter than buses and honestly it makes so much sense... buses rarely have to go out of their route

Wait this isn't a thing in the west?

It helps. But I don't understand why, since they're dark..? Don't they just absorb the light instead of letting the light through?
