If it is more than 60 percent compression with stenosis then yiu have to get the surgery. Results of surgery very good if done by qualified doctor. Please post the film's of MRI so that I can comment exactly if surgery is required or not

Hi,
If the pain is not subsiding, then surgery is recommended. But further details can be discussed only after reviewing the reports. You can send me the reports by practo chat.
Take care
