Can anybody please explain my MRI report in English, give details of treatment and recovery from my pain?

My MRI of Cervical Spine reveals; “1. Degenerative disc disease seen at C4-C5,C5-C6,C6-C7 with mild streaking of servical spine possibly due to spasm. 2. C5-C6 disc shows a large paracentral and lateral herniation causing foraminal stenosis compressing the exiting nerve roots. Mild indentation of the cord seen. No cord signal abnormality.3. No intraspinal SOL. No infective disease process”. I experienced acute pain in my neck on right side which radiated to right shoulder and right upper arm. Taking oral medicines prescribed by my ortho has reduced the above pain upto 95% and he has diagnosed slipped disc.Whether “OZONUCLEOLYSIS” treatment is required in my case and if so what is the tentative cost for it and how helpful will it be and details of the same in respect of the actual treatment, followup and recovery time. Whether above treatment can be done in Mumbai and where. Also what are the chances of reoccurence of the pain in future and precuations for avoiding the same in future.
