Well the cause of your issue could be any thing out of what you think but now you need to focus more on treatment as well as precautions. For this you can visit a ortho or physio doctor get your mom done and based on the severity of your issue they will guide u in this with few posture related advice as well exercise to strengthen the back. If it looks severe on mri then the ortho would also guide for any kind of surgical corrections. Don't get panic and just follow the steps by visiting ortho or physio and you should be fine. Take care
