QuestionWhat are treatment options for someone who has degeneration of the L3-4 and L4-5 intervertebral disc manifest by decreased signal intensity of T2 weighed imagin with mild loss of disc space height.
AnswerAlthough I am not a physician, I can tell you that physical therapy is the best approach. Strengthening the abdominal and low back muscles along with slow stretching exercises such as yoga should improve any symptoms. This is particularly true since you only have a mild loss at this point.
Thank you for your question, Amy. I hope that my answer was helpful.
