What and where is an annular tear which is related to my cervical spine MRI?
The bony spine is made up of bones which stack one upon another. These bones are called vertebrae. These vertebrae are separated from each other by discs. There is a disc between every 2 vertebrae. The discs are hockey-puck-shaped cushions with a capsule very much like nylon tape, filled with a jelly-like subsance (called the nucleus pulposus). A herniated disc is a disc which has a tear in the capsule, from which protrudes some of the jelly-like substance. An annular tear is a tear in the disc. This is what the radiologist says you have when he sees a tear in the disc but nothing protruding through it. The question of whether an annular tear can actually cause pain is controversial. Some authorities say it can, some say it can't.
