Severe pain in the back.

One of my friends is having severe back pain and as suggested have "MRI- Lumbosacral spine without contrast" got it done. The impression showed desiccated L5-S1 intervertebral disc. Mild left asymmetric diffuse disc bulge at L5-S1 level causing mild left neural foraminal narrowing. Mild diffuse disc bulge at L4-5 level causing slight thecal sac indentation. Note is made of over distented urinary bladder. Sagittal scout images of whole spine reveal a hyperintense focus at D10 vetebral body - could be a hemamgioma and would require a dedicated study for confirmation. He's getting severe left side disc pain and even calf pain. Could you please give on comments on the same.
