Lumber spine MRI report attached
I am attaching a MRI report of lumber spine with detailed report. Kindly advise on it and next line of treatment. How good or bad is the MRI report. She has a lot of pain in the lower back, bums and thighs. Is bed rest needed. If yes, then for how many days ? The pain has worsened since it started 14 days ago and she is on painkillers since then. She is not diabetic. Before all this pain, she moved around on her own with the help of a walker. Now resting on bed since past 3 days. Please advise. Thanks
