Hi,Welcome to HCM, The MRI OF YOUR SPINE is near normal.No need to worry. There is only mild bulges. Treatment of this is rest for nearly weeks and then followed by exercises.For pain Analgesics(diclofenac 50 mg three times a day after meals)sometimes cause of backache is low level of vitaminD3.you can get it checked(by blood test ). If it slow then its supplements can be taken.I think your query is answered.
