What is the meaning of 'Central to left para-central small disk protrusion at L5-S1'?
It means that there is a small disc protrusion in the lower back (just above the sacrum). It is a painful condition that might interfere with walking and balance. Discs can herniate and sequester, so the notation is so that the condition can be monitored and evaluated. L-5 is the fifth and lowest lumbar vertebra and S-1 is the first and highest sacral bone. Paracentral indicates a slightly off center, to the left, in this case, bulge.
What is the medical term meaning Degenerative condition of the vertebrae?
spondylosis spondyl/o = vertebrae/vertebra osis= abnormal condition
What is a Small disc protrusion C5-6 vertebrae with mild compression deformity of dural sac?
If you have no symptoms it's just a slightly squashed intervertebral disk, if you do have symptoms it's were they're going to cut. (C5-C6 is low on your neck)
What is mid cervical degenerative discovertebral complex?
What this refers to is a degenerative disk problem at the middle cervical region of your spine.The cervical spine is your neck, from the skull to the base of the neck. The mid-region disks are typically the C5,6 & 7 disks/vertebrae, and they're also the ones most commonly affected by disease."Discovertebral Complex" is just a fancy term for saying you've got degeneration in that area. What it's being caused by can be any number of things - hereditary disease, arthritis, stenosis, facet problems, etc.You can read more about it at Spine Universe - link is below.
What is it called when the central part of an intervertebral disk is forced through the outer covering?
herniated disk
Do you need surgery is you have small-to-moderate sized broad-based disk protrusion that is right paracentral?
If you are symptomatic then you may require surgery. Your spine specialist is the best judge.
Who can diagnosis cervical disk disease?
Cervical disk disease is typically diagnosed by an orthopedist or a neurologist.
Does disk herniation ever occur in the cervical spine?
can also occur in the cervical spine. The incidence of cervical disk herniation is most common between the fifth and sixth cervical vertebrae. The second most common area for cervical disk herniation occurs between
What is a displaced disk?
A blisterlike bulging or protrusion of the contents of the disk out through the fibers that normally hold them in place
What are the risks associated with a cervical disk replacement?
Cervical disk replacement is used to repair the spinal cord when the cervical disks become worn out. Some risks include nerve injury, bleeding, issues with swallowing, and lifespan of the disk.
What is central and right posterolateral disc protrusion spur complex?
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.
Can a car accident cause a degenerative disk protrusion?
They may be a causative factor.
Which medical problems can be fixed by a cervical disk surgery?
The medical problems that can be fixed by a cervical disk surgery are all back problems such as rupturing a disk in one's back which can cause the need for surgery.

Focal disc protrusion?
a small protrusion of the disk is caused buy pressure on the spine. speaking to the disk itself if there is a weakened spot in the canula the pressure on that disk is more susceptible to give under the spinal pressure, thus causing it to protrude possibly putting pressure directly on the sciatic nerve.
What are the symptoms of a herniated cervical disk?
Symptoms of a herniated cervical disk include arm pain, possible muscle weakness, tingling, and numb fingers. You may also have lesser hand strength. The pain can radiate from the disk to other areas.
Paracentral disc protrusion L4-5?
This is a bulging of the disk material on the back side of the vertebral bodies, at the junction of the Lumbar and sacral portions of the spinal column. This is one of the most common sites of this event. When the disk protrudes into the canal at this point, it typically imposes itself onto the remnants of the spinal cord, causing low back pain often with radiation into the buttocks, posterior thigh, calf, or foot. This is the early stages of what is typically known as "disk herniation."
