Hi,
Based on the history you have shared, it shows that the small spaces between your vertebrae which are supposed to give way for nerves exiting from spinal cord have narrowed down and compressing on these nerves and leading to neuropathic complications in the areas supplied by these nerves.
You may need to get the film's of this MRI to a neurosurgeon for any neurosurgical intervention or supportive treatment. Wishing you a speedy recovery. Regards
