Diffuse bulge of L2-3 disc

2018-01-17 09:04:16
Diffuse bulge of L2-3 disc with right paracentral protrusion, compressing right L3 nerve root. Diffuse bulge of L3-4 disc causing mild narrowing of bilateral L3 inferior neural foramina. Mild generalised arthropathy. This is the MRI report for my father. Do we need surgery here or can be cured using medication. He is having frequent back pain and pain in legs.
