What Do Bilateral Foraminal Narrowing And Disc Protrusions Displacement Of Cervical Inter-vertebral Disc In An MRI Report Suggest?

what do terms of broad based posterior spurring , disc osteophyte complex mod. bilateral foraminal narrowing degenerative endplate uptake degenerative facet uptake posterior disc protrusions displacement of cervical invertabral disc what do these mean. I have extreme burning in my neck and thoracic area of back, stabbing and sometimes I am holding something and it just drops from my grasp? I am not sure what s is happening. I did pull a muscle in my back in Jan and within a short amnt of time my neck starting burning and I lost ROM, significantly in my neck? I am afraid of these terms but they were in the report from two MRI s (cervical and thoracic) and a Bone Spec Scan. Thanks very much

it seems that you have moderate to severe cervical disc problem...due to that there will be nerve compression which causes the complaints you said...for which primarily we advise conservative management with pregabalin 75mg at night and gabapentin 100mg at morning for 2to 4weeks..if complaint persists go for Neurosurgoens opinion regarding surgery
