Hi, we understand your concern for your uncle, but to answer your question - some more history, examination and MRI films are needed.

Require mri images and also how much is standing time , walking distance of him , Based on physical examination one can guide about treatment

Require mri films photos, it is age related issues. Now pain management and Physiotherapy is helpful.

Need to see the MRI films before making a proper diagnosis and relevant treatment. Degenerative means age related changes and these changes are putting pressure over the exiting nerves….and these changes can be due variety of reasons (so films) And yes if such conditions present for longer duration may affect day to day life…..and the symptomatic treatment can be started before even thinking about surgical treatment See a spine surgeon nearby

Share mri report.. Start medicine first Mostly it will correct by rest, medicine, life style modifications

Nothing to panic , what is your uncle age ? Impression looks like age related changes , but need to see the mri pictures as well . I feel medicines will be enough for him .
