Hi and welcome to HCM. It can be both,but primary vertebral cancers are very rare and tumors in spine are usually metastasis from prostate, lung or liver cancers. So if you dont already have verified some cancer it will probaly be TB lesion. Check your blood for TB and repeat MRI in 6 months and see is there progression in size of it.
Wish you good health.
