I've been suffering from fairly low level but constant lower back pain for the past few years. I finally decided to get an Wikipedia reference-linkMRI done which showed a degenerated and bulging disc at L4/5.

However the pain I get is more 'nagging' and constant in nature and it is centred at two areas lower down on the pelvis, about 2 inches either side of the spine. The MRI report mentions sclerosis above the SI joints- could this explain my pain? The two areas feel 'lumpy' and are very tender to the touch, could this be scar tissue from micro-trauma i.e. wear and tear? I did weight training for a number of years and hurt my back a few times although usually it healed in few days to a week.

Any thought are much appreciated.
