Orthopaedic Surgeon 's  Response
Hi, IVDP does cause tingling pain and numbness due to cord and root compression but the severity of bulge is what decides the severity of symptoms.If it is mild to moderate with no root compression , the tingling and numbness may not be much but pain may be present due to secondary muscle spasm.
In such case low back exercise will be the solution wherein the muscles get strengthened and hence u feel better
There definitely wil not be any problem in sex life due to this IVDP.Pls do not worry about it.Get married and have a good life.
