Greetings from Kolkata.
Hello, if you have only back pain then it should be manageable by physiotherapy modalities and NSAIDS. Your MRI is suggestive of nerve root compression at L4-L5 AND L5-S1. So if you have left leg pain then you should get it checked by a orthopedic surgeon as soon as possible.
Next Steps
show a orthopedic or spine surgeon for clinical assessment.
