Talk to your doctor: Pars defects and disk bulges are seen in an increasing percentage of patients with advancing age. They may or may not be causing back pain at the time of the exam. Your symptoms would need to be correlated with the degree of abnormality on the MRI and at which level the abnormality is located.
