Default Help with reading my Mri please!!

I had back surgery about 4 years ago and started having issues again. So I was sent in for an MRI and the doctor didn't really explain my results to me.So if I could get some help I'd appreciate it! Thank you in advance!

At l3-4 there is minimal disc desiccated
At l4-5 the disc is desiccated. There is left foraminal and far lateral disc buldging with small annular fissure.
At l5-s1 level there are post surgical changes from a previous left Hemilaminotomy and discectomy. There is a small residual left sub articular disc protrusion. This mildly narrows the lateral recess.

Impression
1. Mild left lateral recess stenosis at l5- s1 secondary to small residual disc protrusion.
2. Mild discogenic changes at l4-5 with no significant stenosis
