Hi Vikas,
You have marginal osteophytosis with anterior wedging in D12-L1. The probable causes are osteoporosis,thyroid disease,spinal infection,trauma.
It would be good if you rule out the causes to prevent trauma to other vertebrae.
Depending upon the cause you would need to take medicine course .These are prescription medicines so it would be good if you visit a nearby orthopedic.
Coming on to the treatment part ,depending upon the severity of the fracture(wedging) it will be decided if it can be conservatively treated or not.

For conservative treatment following options are available
Physiotherapy(includes rest,strengthening of limbs and abdominal,ergonomic advises)
Lumbar brace

And the operative procedures are
Vertebroplasty
spinal fusion

Hope you get well soon and this helps you
Thank you
