As per your report it shows mild displacement. So you have to consult orthopedic first to plan out the treatment. If conservative management is suggested then consult nearby Physiotherapist and start physio treatment.
Start uing lumbo sacral belt without wasting time.
Next Steps
start Physiotherapy treatment along with strengthening exercises and use firm cushion whenever u sit. try to avoid pressure on it.
