Explain the results of my MRI, I did have it done with and without contrast. What about treatment for me? At the L2/L3 level, there is diffuse disc bulge producing mild bilateral neural foraminal stenosis. At the L3/L4 level, there is diffuse disc bulge with ligamentum flavum hypertrophy producing moderate bilateral neural foramen stenosis. At the L4/L5 level, there is diffuse disc bulge producing moderate degree of bilateral neural foramen stenosis. At the L5/S1 level, there is diffuse disc bulge producing moderate degree of bilateral neural foramen stenosis.
Hi and thanks for using Chat Doctor. MRI results show there is degenerative disc disease of your vertebral column, compressing partially lumbar nerves and medulla. Treatment depends on your symptoms, if there is unsupportable pain even with medication, difficulty walking, urination disorders, then you need decompressive surgery. Otherwise, treatment is conservative, and I suggest you to consult a Neurologist and discuss further treatment steps (NSAID Chat Doctor.  Hope this answers your question. If you have additional questions or follow-up questions then please do not hesitate in writing to us. I will be happy to answer your questions.
