Hi, thank you for providing the MRI scan report in brief. As you mentioned you want suggestions on the MRI scan, so I should mention here that the patient needs a thorough assessment before any suggestions. Also, most MRI scans may show abnormal signs on board, but it has to be related clinically. Without the clinical symptoms the report can be not taken into so serious. Also, if the patient is having symptoms like - numbness, tingling, radiating pain in upper limb and lower limb, than a suggestion can be provided. For which there is a degenerative disc disease in the cervical and lumbar region. The treatment plan is totally dependable on the symptoms. The general plan is - rest, medication for pain and physical therapy. 99% patients in my personal practice recover from symptoms and are back to work. Regards Jay In Chat Doctor.
