Hi,
you have spondilytic changes in your lumbar and cervical region.This is aging process so it can not cured but further damage can be prevented so you concentrate your mind to prevent more damage.
Continue physiotherapy like traction,short way diathermy and other exercise done at the center
take calcium and vitamin D suppliments.
Take more milk.
Continue medicines for other problems.
Continue slow walking and strictly follow the advices given by orthopedician.
