Hi,I am Dr. Shanthi.E (General & Family Physician). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
MRI REPORT - What does L3-4 moderate disc space narrowing with about 8 mm of right lateral subluxation of L3 on L4, and 3 mm of posterior ridging and disc bulging with facet arthropathy but no central canal or definite lateral recess stenosis; moderate left foraminal encroachment mean?
It simply means that your disc has been displaced from its place but not compressing any nerve which is a good sign. Simply avoid bending and weight lifting.
Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Regards,
Dr. Jaideep Gaver, Orthopedic Surgeon
