This just means that each vertebrae is broken into two or more pieces...
the spinal nerves which comprise the brachial plexus are C5 - C8 and T1. lumosacral plexus are L1 - L5, S1 - S4 and SR.
C5 is the 5th cervical vertebra, C6 and C7 are below C5. They are found in the neck.

The phrenic nerve is a mixed motor/sensory nerve that goes through the neck and thorax to the supply the diaphragm.It arises from the C3, C4 and C5 cervical nerve roots.
It is the 5th cervical vertabrae down from the base of the skull...found in the neck.
The C5-6 vertebrae are located in the cervical (neck) region of the spine. Specifically, they are positioned between the C5 and C6 vertebrae, forming part of the cervical spine that supports the neck and head.
Moderate right foraminal narrowing at C5-6 is narrowing of the canals in the spine. C5-6 stands for cervical number 5 and number 6.
Cervical spine--5th vertabrae, 6th cervical vertibral body, just above the shoulders.
C5 and C6 are cervical vertebrae found in the neck. Anterior osteophytes of C5 and C6 are bone spurs that have formed on the front portion of vertebrae 5 and 6 in your neck. This can be a very painful condition.
It means a small portion of one of the bones in the spine is bigger than it should be. C5/C6 are at the base of the neck, just above where it joins the body.
C5- c-6 refers to the cervical spine. There are 7 bones in the cervical spine and C3, 4 and 5 keep the diaphragm alive. Any damage in that area will compromise breathing.
Surgery should be a last resort. There are wonderful ways that may allow you to have these problems taken care of without surgery. Your first stop needs to be to the office of a well experienced chiropractor!
the spinal nerves which comprise the brachial plexus are C5 - C8 and T1. lumosacral plexus are L1 - L5, S1 - S4 and SR.
Uncovertebral arthropathy refers to degenerative changes of the uncovertebral joint. This joint is located on both sides of the disc space adjacent to the cervical spine.
A spinal fracture will only cause paralysis if the spinal cord is also damaged. A C5 injury will affect finger flexion and extension, wrist flexion, tricepts, and all muscle groups from the chest downwards throughout the body. Breathing will be compromised, as will bowel, bladder and sexual function.
Osteophytes are bone spurs, a sign of arthritis. Basically, it says you have arthritis in your neck, with bone spurs protruding toward the back of the spine at levels C3 through C5. Whether this has any causative effect on any symptoms you may or may not be experiencing is impossible to determine from your question.
