Need help interpreting MRI
Conclusion: There are disc protrusion at L4-L5 and L5-S1. At L5-S1 the disc touches the traversing S1 nerve roots bilatterly. Please correlate for S1 radiculopathy.
Flexion/Extension Xray Findings:
There is mild wedging of the T10-T11 vertebral bodies with accentuation of the throacic kyphosis at that level. There is disc space narrowing at L5-S1.
What does this all mean and how is it treated? Is there hope that I could have less pain?
Also when I looked up the wedging of my thoracic discs all I could find was info about compression/wedge fractures. Is my disc fractured or was it at some point? How is that treated?
I appreciate any help you have to offer! Thanking for taking the time to read my post!
