As for your doubt,the reported MRI findings are characteristic of a benign i mean noncancerous bony out growth but it requires surgical removal as you are suffering already with neural pain invoving due to adjoining nerve/s impingng upon. As no medicine can relieve the pain permanently and nerve weakness may also advance to involve muscle supplied by them,i advocate you to plan see a Neurosurgeon and/or orthopaedic who can help with surgery and prevent further suffering and possible muscle damage
