Should i get a second opinion?

I went to get MRIs of both my lower back and neck the other day due to having back issues for awhile from working with heavy machinery and recently having a bad rear end collision. Well i got hit pretty hard in the back at a red light sitting still while the driver was moving 65 MPH plus and now my back hurts worse than it ever has along with my neck. The Ortho doctor i was sent to is the one the lawyer im using goes to specifically and told me over the phone that he sees slight bulging but nothing surgery wise needed so hes sending me to physical therapy. My cousin who has worked as an ortho radiologist says i have a few discs that look at the very least bulging in my back and neck if not herniated. Just looking for other opinions on whether i should get another doctor to take a look or go along with the physical therapy. Thanks. https://preview.redd.it/52s9dwxmd4e51.jpg?width=640&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=a091148d527fa3732e5934edbe06127295f1665c https://preview.redd.it/2mfc40ymd4e51.jpg?width=640&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=33ad24911c31bfaceca896509ba24e1775324b66 https://preview.redd.it/wt7wr1ymd4e51.jpg?width=320&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=dec944563ed74c16e90242ebccbe8e5496f8a1d6 submitted by /u/Selfboy24 [link] [comments]
