I'm looking at my MRI results and I'm seeing terms like calcified granuloma in the right parietal lobe and mild diffuse cerebral atrophy. Can you help me understand what these really mean? Is there something I should be worried about?

I've been diagnosed with a slipped disc at L4 L5 S1 and have a lot of pain, especially shooting down my left leg. My doctor prescribed neorelax mr 8, gabanuron od, and gemcal along with exercises twice a day and ice packs. Will this treatment actually help me recover or should I consider surgery for this issue

Slip disc treatment with medications and physiotherapy may help; surgery is for cases with severe nerve compression or no improvement after 6‚Äì8 weeks.
