What Do The Findings In The MRI Of The Neck Suggest?
Hello, I just received results from a MRI done on my neck and the results are in medical terms that I do not really understand. Could you please break this down for me and let me know how severe (if at all) it is? It reads: Mild right paracentral disc osteophyte complex and unconvertebral hypertrophy at C4-C5 with moderate right neural foramina narrowing. Moderate disc herniation at C5-C6 with mild central canal stenosis. Disc protrusion at T2-T3 with very mild central canal stenosis. Thank you so much for your time.

Hi ,before commenting on these findings I would like to know your symptoms and severity of symptoms .
Correlation b/w your symptoms and Mri finding is necessary.
Mild paracentral c4 /c5 paracentral osteophyte complex and moderate right neural foramen narrowing and moderate c5 /c6 disc herniation can require surgery .
For this I would like to see Mri films.Thanks
