Back Pain For 5 Years. X Ray Shows Straightening Of Lumbar Nerve. Solution?

Hello my name is julia . I have this back pain for 5 years now and the last time I had the scan, it revealed that SLR is 45○ on the right side, 80○ on the left . X-ray shown straightening of the lumber curve. I want to know if it is serious or if there is a solution to that. I do not understand what all this mean. Thank you for responding and advice. God bless you

Hi,
From history it seems that due to degenerative changes in your lumbar vertebrae, normal curvature of spines is lost giving rise to backache.
Consult orthopedic surgeon and get examined.
Physiotherapy will be helpful.
Take Calcium, vitamin A and D supplements.
Ok and take care.
I find this answer helpful
