hi,
your report indicates that there is multiple level of disc lesions. now based on the symptoms you describe we can come upto some conclusion. usually 90% of the scan will come with some abnormal positioning of the spine and discs. and spondylosis is a ageing related issues. where it happens to almost 90% of the population. Regular back strengthening exercises will be of help and avoid any pain and aches.
