Neurologist 's  Response
Hello dear
Your Mri report is suggesting early and minimal lumbar spondylosis. With this report you need not to worry. You have not mentioned your symptoms. As far as backpain is concerned you can get benefit with physiotherapy, avoiding stooping forward, lifting heavy objects, squatting.
Treatment can be taken in the form of neuro modulator for pain like pregabalin, amitryptiline or gabapentin. Local pain reliever ointment can also be used.
You will recover early if you follow the advice. You may visit a neurologist.
Hope you found the answer helpful.
Wishing you good health
