[|Human|] in my lumber spine MRI POSTERIOR and right paracentral protrusion of L4-L5 intervartebral disc causing compression over ventral aspect of dural theca and exiting nerve roots AND POSTERIOR DIFFUSE BULGING OF L5 S1 INTERVERTIBAL DISC A CAUSING MILD COMPRESSION OVER VENTRAL ASPECT OF DURAL THECA ANS EXITING NERVE ROOTWHAT ARE THERE MEANING PLS GUIDE ME AND SUGGSEST FOR TREATMENT
[|AI|]  Hello! I carefully read your MRI report and would explain that these findings indicate two intervertebral disc herniation in two levels : L4-L5 and L5-S1. They both do not cause spinal cord compression but exit the nerve root, which means that they can cause articular pain in the inferior limbs, by compressing the nerves. I recommend consulting with a neurosurgeon on the possibility of surgery. Holding a lumbar brace could be helpful! I would also recommend avoiding prolonged sitting or standing up position and weight lifting. Hope to have been helpful! Kind regards,
