A member asked:
Explain? mild l4-l5 facet hypertrophy. l5-s1 mild diminished signal intensity & although/annulus fissure is similar. the foramina are mildly narrowed.

No explanation: Is needed. You basically have mild arthritic changes which are insignificant and simply as a result of time and gravity. If you have back pain it is most likely muscular because this MRI result could be found on someone who has no pain.
