Hello, Welcome to icliniq.com. After taking a look at the MRI (magnetic resonance imaging) reports that you have posted (attachment removed to protect patient identity) it looks like your mother has moderate arthritis in her cervical spine and lumbar spine, which is starting to cause nerve compression. Ibuprofen 600 mg and Baclofen 10 mg, once in the morning and once in the evening is the typical initial starting point to help with some of the symptoms. This will provide short-term management of her condition. Typically that is recommended for about four to six weeks.
