Between the fith and sixth cervical vertibrae (neck bones) the cartilage disk between them is sticking out a bit to the left. This is most likely pinching the nerve root.

It means that the disc between L5-S1 has protruded out to one side (not centrally), and is affecting (most likely compressing) the S1 nerve root which is below the level of the herniation (the L5 nerve root has already exited the IVF). From this report I am assuming you are having some sensory or motor problems in your lower limbs?!
Pls explain at t8-9 there is disc desiccation and degeneration centr disc herniation w inferior subligamentous ext behind the upper half of the t9 vererbral body abutt the ventral cord surfaces?
Lets look at the terms first:T8-9 are the 8th and 9th vertebrae in the thoracic (chest) region. There is damage between them.Disc desiccation means that the soft cushion (disc) between the boney vertebra is dried out.Degeneration means that it is not like it was and has broken down.Inferior means below.Subligamentous is another word for disc herniation.Disc herniation means that the soft disc has pushed out and is pushing (abutting) the spinal cord.This disc herniation is occurring behind the upper half of T9.It can cause lot of pain in the chest area. The ribs tend to feel heavier as the day goes on. You can also feel very short of breath and it hurts to take a deep breath and have tremendous pain when laughing, sneezing or coughing.Laying down gives the most relief. When you sit you will find that leaning back about 30 degrees helps.See link below (showing herniation in the lumbar region but is the same in the thoracic region):
