Needs physical therapy

Detailed Answer:
Thanks for asking on Health care magic.

The mentioned MRI details pose no threat to life but it can be really problematic as the pain can stay for quite a while. Physical therapy is the primary mode of treatment. Hot compress and ultrasonotherapy can help.

Let me know if I could help further.
