Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service.
I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.

The MRI report shows slight abnormality of interspinous ligaments. However, there is no abnormality of the disc or the spinal nerves.
Collapsed margin of sac can lead to compression of spinal nerves in future. You need to take rest, exercise and take advice from your orthopedician.

Hope I have answered your query.
Let me know if I can assist you further.
