Detailed Answer:
Dear
Thanks for contacting with your health concern and after reviewing your health query I’m of the following opinion:

1. As you are getting difficulties in doing Activities of Daily Living (ADL), thus the most probable cause is ‘nerve entrapment’ as suggested by”STENOSIS”

PS. Is this pathology age/occupational/ injury related, and whether taking any medicines for any other simultaneous pathology.

2. Also going by your age and presence of osteophytes, it looks like you are suffering from some degenerative disease, as such osteoarthritis, herniated/slip disc has to be excluded.

3. Prior to initiate management or treatment protocol, kindly consult an Orthopedic Doctor or at best have an appointment with a Spinal Surgeon regarding his/her view(s) on the report.

4. If you still feel that you want to go ahead with the Alternative Treatment I will furnish the details.
