Foraminal Stenosis means the nerve roots exiting through the holes from the spine have been seriously narrowed. You can consult a surgeon to see whether surgery will help you. Physical Therapy might provide some pain relief, if advised by your doctor. You should ask your doctor about filing for SSDI or SSD if you can no longer work.
NOTE: This condition does not get better by ignoring it.

chronic lacunar infarct
The ICD-9 code for neural foranimal stenosis is 724.9. Foranimal stenosis is nerve compression of the nerve that leaves the spinal canal through the foramen. It can occur in the neck or lower back.
Neural foraminal stenosis is a condition in which a spinal nerve is compressed, causing pain and numbness of the lower back or the neck. It can be caused by herniated or bulging discs, bone spurs, or collapse of the spinal disc space.
Moderate left foraminal stenosis is compression of the cervical spinal nerves that travel through a narrowing of the foramina. Causes of the narrowing include herniated disc material and bone spurs in the neck.
There's actually 2 separate indications in your Radiology report:Mild bilateral neural foraminal stenosis is a common problem with most people. The Foramen is the spinal opening at each vertebrae where the nerves pass through; stenosis is the term for narrowing, and in this case it's stating that there's foraminal narrowing in the L5-S1 vertebral area, which is not uncommon.The "small tear" is at the posterior (rear) annulus of the L5-S1 disk, meaning there's a small rupture in the rear of the disk membrane.

what is for animal effacement
The Radiology report indicates that there's a a narrowing (stenosis) on both sides (bilateral) of the foramen, which are the holes through each vertebrae where the nerves exit. Stenosis common in most people as they age, though it can happen faster in cases where there's a spinal degeneration problem or other disease.
neuroforaminal narrowing
Neural compromise, also referred to as neural foraminal compromise, is a health condition. It's when the spinal column's foreman becomes narrowed.
It means there is only a small amount of wear and tear in the pads between the vertebrae and that there is no problem at this time with the Chanel's that allow the nerves to pass between them.
