This is not permanent problem. Can be resolved through good physiotherapy rehabilitation and strengthening of back muscles and also u have to reduce your weight and improve BMI

Diffuse bulge is nothing but early disc degeneration so it cannot revert back to normal. But surely you can get rid of the pain associated with it . A good rehabilitation and physical therapy to strengthen your muscle and reduce the BMI should be helpful.
