Hi Mr XXXXXXX XXXXXXX
Thank you for posting your query.
I have noted your symptoms and have also gone through your MRI spine reports.
First of all, I would like to reassure you that the problem is minor and there is no need to worry.
Yes, the problem reported in your MRI is present from birth. So, I agree with your doctor.
Treatment at this stage would consist of physiotherapy with back extension exercises. You should also walk or jog on a regular basis.
No surgery is required for this problem.
