Hi, Thanks for writing in. Please find your MRI findings explained below in simple language.1. Mild lower lumbar hyperhidrosis. The curvature of spine is increased in the lower back.2. A 4\u00a0mm mostly central disc protrusion at L4-5 with. Mild central stenosis. At L4-5, there is mild disc desiccation in conjunction w. A 4\u00a0mm slightly broad-based but predominantly midline disc protrusion, mild thecal sac impingement and mild central stenosis. No major foraminal narrowing or nerve root impingement. Facet joints are grossly normal. There is a small disc bulging at the L 4 - L 5 level which is causing slight narrowing of the spinal canal. The disc also shows loss of water content which is a degenerative change. No pinching of nerves is noted.3. A 2\u00a0mm disc bulge at L5-S1 comments on MRI
