It means that the space between your vertebrae, from which nerves leave the spinal cord, is narrowed due to a structural damage to the intrervertebral space, joint problems and fusion of 4th and 5th lumbar vertebra.
This is causing symptoms in the areas distributed by that nerve.
Hope this answers your question, thank you.
