Hi Thanks for your query. I am Dr Akshay from Fortis Hospital, New Delhi. Mild degeneration is quite common to find in spinal MRI so that is not a cause of worry unless there is pressure on nerves. My advise to you is to get in an active lifestyle including intensive physical therapy of neck, lower back etc. Keep your calcium and vitamin D metabolism up to the mark and you can also take a short course anti-inflammatory drug therapy suitable according to your body. If you still have problems, then you may come back to me for further discussion. Do not hesitate to contact me if you need any further assistance. Thanks & Regards Dr Akshay Kumar Saxena
