What Does L3/4 Disc Demostrates Moderate Broadbased Posterial Bulge Mean?
I had a MRI done and just picked up the results concerned over results L3/4 disc demostrates moderate broadbased posterial bulge,L4/5 minimal posterial bulge with associated annulus fissure.L5/s1 bilatural posterolateral bulging.Potential compromise of both existing L5 nerve roots
Regarding your concern, I would explain that these MRI findings are suggestive of chronic degenerations of the lumbar vertebral column, due to overweight or weight lifting. There is no need for surgery, but I would recommend avoiding weight lifting and performing physiotherapy. A lumbar brace can help too.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
