Essentially this means a herniated disc in the cervical spine (neck) between cervical vertebrae 3 and 4, protruding on the left side and touching the nerve. This causes neck pain, pain radiating into L shoulder, possible weakness on that side and may cause muscle spasm in the left neck or shoulder area. The disc material and pressure on the nerve causes the nerve to be inflamed. This should be evaluated and treated by a physician to promote healing, relieve pain and spasm, and relieve inflammation of the nerve root. Conservative treatment is usually effective, but sometimes more advanced therapies are required.
