You are obviously talking about MRI or CT findings probably described in a radiologists report. ?Essentially these are findings describing what is seen on these pictures of your cervical spine (neck). ?Moderate here simply means that what they are talking about is not mild, but it is not severe. ?The central canal here is the space that the spinal cord is in. ?A neural foramen is the hole that the nerve root comes out of, in this case the C6 nerve root. ?Stenosis simply means narrowing of a canal or foramen (hole). ?C5-C6 is the level in the spine that is affected.
The answer is that it may mean something significant, or it may mean nothing at all. ?Imaging findings do not always correlate with the clinical findings, i.e. problems that are seen on an MRI do not mean the patient is having symptoms or pain. ?If the neural foramen are stenotic at C5-6, then you might experience weakness in arm flexion, supination at the wrist may be weak, extension of the wrist may be weak, and problems with sensation may be seen in the thumb, index finger, and ring finger. ?If the cervical spinal cord is affected this may cause problems in your legs as well in bowel, bladder, or sexual function. ?Keep in mind that just because an MRI says that you have these things, it doesn't automatically mean you will have these symptoms. ??

What is Lady Gaga is boy?
No. She just had a deformity resulting in a non-functioning, malformed penis and it's not HER fault.
What adult animal that possesses bilateral symmetry is most certainly also?
The adult animal that most certainly possesses bilateral symmetry is a frog. Frogs have distinct left and right sides that are mirror images of each other, resulting in bilateral symmetry.
What is the medical term meaning silver fork deformity?
The medical term for "silver fork deformity" is "colles fracture." It refers to a specific type of wrist fracture where the bone breaks near the wrist joint, resulting in a characteristic appearance resembling the shape of a silver fork.
What does it mean bilateral frontal lobe hemorrhagic contusion?
bilateral - affecting both sides of the brainfrontal lobe - the front of the brain, a major ability of this lobe is to project future consequences resulting from current actionshemorrhagic - accompanied by or produced by hemorrhage (internal bleeding)contusion - a bruise
What is disk degeneration with broadband disc protrusion at l5-s1?
Disk degeneration with broadband disc protrusion at L5-S1 refers to the deterioration of the intervertebral disc located between the fifth lumbar vertebra and the first sacral vertebra, leading to a bulging or protrusion of the disc material. This condition can cause compression of nearby nerves, potentially resulting in pain, numbness, or weakness in the lower back and legs. The term "broadband" suggests that the protrusion may be more extensive, affecting a wider area than a typical localized herniation. Treatment options often include physical therapy, pain management, and, in severe cases, surgical intervention.
What type of fracture results from the radius and ulna being forced backward and upward?
A fracture resulting from the radius and ulna being forced backward and upward is called a Colles' fracture. It is a type of distal radius fracture where the bone breaks near the wrist joint, usually due to a fall on an outstretched hand. Colles' fractures typically result in a dorsal displacement of the hand and a characteristic deformity known as a "dinner fork" deformity.
Body is divided vertically into equal left and right halves?
This is the concept of bilateral symmetry. It means that the body can be divided into two equal halves along a vertical plane, resulting in mirrored halves. Bilateral symmetry is common in many organisms, including humans.
What does chronic anterior wedge deformity of T7 T8 and T9 resulting in kyphosis of 25 degrees mean?
It means that the front parts of the several vertebrae are compressed down making the vertebrae wedge shaped instead of perfectly square. It is the cause of the hump in the back and often suggests osteoporosis.
What are the causes of exophthalmos?
The most common cause of exophthalmos is Graves' disease, overactivity of the thyroid gland. The contents of the orbits swell due to inflammation, forcing the eyes forward. The inflammation affects primarily the muscles.
Do molly fins grow back after being torn or eaten by another fish?
Provided the fish is given proper food and good conditions, yes the fins will grow back. The new fin(s) are never as perfect as the old ones. There is usually some deformity (scarring) resulting from the damage.
Many animals have body symmetry with distinct front and back ends This type of symmetry is?
This type of symmetry is called bilateral symmetry. It means that an animal's body can be divided into two equal halves along a single plane, typically the midline, resulting in mirror images.
Why is skin pink coloured?
The color of skin is naturally selected over time by environmental stimuli. Some 160,000 years ago, the original inhabitants of Europe with darker skin were prone to lack of vitamin d from sunlight, resulting in bone deformity. Therefore pale skin resulted in a healthier population and it became predominant.
