I have a lower back pain and a right buttock pain. i have consulted this but i am not satisfied with their explanations. to give you head-on: i undergo MRI as per advised; here is the result: posterior disc bulge with annular tear, moderate to severe stenosis of both nueral foramina and mild stenosis of both both lateral recesses at L3/L4. Disc dessication and posterior disc bulge with moderate to severe stenosis of both nueral foramina at L4/L5. Posterior disc bulge with mild to moderate stenosis of the left nueral foramen, moderate stenosis of the right nueral foramen and mild stenosis of the right lateral recess at L5/S1. Straightening of the lumbar lordosis most likely due to muscle spasm. Apparent posterior convexities are noted at C3/C4, C4/C5, C5/C6 and C6/C7. Disc dessication at C4/C5, C5/C6, and C6/C7.
