Thank you for contacting. Schmorl's nodes and the modic changes and degenarated disc can be a cause of pain in your case. Disc bulges per se look insignificant as per the mri report. However anything can be said conclusively only after a thorough clinical examination and proper history. Yes definitely it can be treated. Treatment options under interventional pain management include epidural injections, biaculoplasty for disc degeneration. Please get in touch for a detailed discussion.
