You have injured a disc in your back ( little shock absorbers between your vertebrae ), and it is bulging out at the site of the injury. Take care or it may become herneated or rurtured.

It is descriptive term for the degenerative spine on CT or MRI. Central disk herniation means a central and posterior protrusion of disk material. Posterolateral disc protrusion indicates herniation of disk along the posterolateral margin of the disk to the spinal canal. Disc spur complex denotes a combined degenerative process with which the protruded disk is accompanied with adjacent bone change with spurring.
What is a L5-S1 , right paramedian protusion
Spondylosis is pain and degeneration of the spine. A spondylitic protrusion is the disc tissue that has displaced beyond the disc space.
Central disc protrusion refers to a condition where the intervertebral disc bulges outwards into the spinal canal, often pressing against the spinal cord or nerve roots. Obliteration of the epidural fat indicates that the protrusion has caused the fat tissue surrounding the spinal cord to be displaced or diminished, which can lead to increased pressure and potential neurological symptoms. This condition is typically associated with back pain, leg pain, or numbness, depending on the severity and location of the protrusion. Diagnosis is usually confirmed through imaging studies like MRI.
Lumbar disc protrusion is a common spinal disc condition that causes lower back pain and other symptoms throughout a patient's lower body. The lumbar spine (lower back) is susceptible of disc protrusion because it supports most of the body's weight and is extremely flexible.
My husband just got his mri report, at c2-c3 minimal left foraminal, c3-c4-3mm posterior central protrusion,c4-c5-posterior annular bulging, c5-c6prominent posterior bulge/broad based protrusion causing right goraminal stenosis, c6-c7 small posterior protrusion.. He has sever pain in his left arm...what should we do..
