Degenerative changes in Lumbar spine

2018-01-15 05:45:58
My vit D is 15, where it should be min 75, my back x-ray reads degenerative changes in Lumbar spine with osteophytes formation and loss of normal lumbar lordosis. Is it something to worry too much? What does this mean? Having too much back pain
