Suggest Treatment For Lateral Herination In Thecal Sac

At C5-C6, there is a small right lateral herniation, causing ventral impression on the thecal sac without cord or nerve root impingement... (from MRI report). Could this be causing my head to hurt on the sides and back and top when I bend over, cough, or sneeze, etc. What is the treatment?
