x-ray of lower lumbar spine --- shows space between discs

I have been experiencing pain in my lower lumbar spine, especially when I go for walks, etc. My GP sent me for an x-ray of my lower lumbar spine. I have been told the x-ray shows spaces between the discs.

If you know, please let me know what that means.
