How Can Central Disc Protrusion And Degenerative Bony Changes Be Treated?

MRI of thoracic spine with findings: no evidence of vertebral collapse or subluxation. There are small areas of T1 and T2 hyperintensity in the T3 and T5 vertebrae due to small lipomata or hemangiomas. There are degenerative bony changes with slight subchondral bone marrow edema along the anterior margin of the disk space at T5-6. The thoracic cord appears normal. There is no evidence of cord expansion or displacement. There is very small central disk protrusion at T8-9 which causes minimal impression on the thecal sa. This does not compress or distort the cord. The foramina are patent. The central
canal appears adequate at all levels.

This was done on 04-04-01. I have a continual feeling of someone pushing at my center back and generalized pressure; and do not have
long tolerance when standing in one position. Is or can this have gotten
worse---there wasn't any treatment given at that time. Exactly what can
I be dealing with?

Thank you, Suzanne
