If causing pain: Schmoryls' nodes are often seen on ct and MRI scans in patients who have these radiologic studies for other reasons ( other than back pain). In other words, there signifigance is questionable.If u have a definite disc problem than physical therapy is quite helpful.See an ors and discuss your pain and tx.Options and whether the 'nodes' are really a cause of your pain...Good luck!
