Hello,

MRI scan shows bulging/protrusion of inter-vertebral disc at level T11-12 and T12-L1.
The lower back pain and abdominal pain are probably due to disc protrusion / bulging.
Treatment for disc protrusion/bulging is rest and pain killers. I suggest you consult your orthopedician for clinical assessment and thus management.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
Dr. Shailja Puri, Pathologist and Microbiologist
