Hi XXXX,
Thanks for being in follow-up and providing further details.
Though,with this MRI report,antineuralgic medicines(like Pregabalin,Gabapentin,Amitriptyline or Duloxetine) combined with dedicated physiotherapy exercises and posture training,should bring improvement in symptoms.
However,I would be in a better position to give an opinion if I can have a look at the MRI abnormalities.
Is it possible for you to please upload the MRI CD or good quality images so that I can have a look at it and advise accordingly?
I shall be looking forward to your follow-up.
