Your doctor is the one to ask. If you mean bone breaking, very serious. Perhaps paralysis.
IS spinal cord flattening dangerous?
Spinal cord flattening, or spinal cord compression, can be dangerous as it may indicate underlying issues such as herniated discs, tumors, or spinal stenosis. This condition can lead to neurological symptoms, including pain, weakness, numbness, or even loss of function in affected areas. Prompt diagnosis and treatment are crucial to prevent potential long-term damage or complications. If you suspect spinal cord flattening, it's important to seek medical evaluation.
What does it mean when there is a flattening of the pons in the human brain?
Flattening of the Pons is typically associated with several neurological conditions causing autonomic dysfunction.
What does mild diffuse anterior flattening of the dura mean?
Mild diffuse anterior flattening of the dura refers to a subtle, broad flattening of the dura mater, which is the outermost layer of the protective covering surrounding the brain and spinal cord. This condition can indicate increased intracranial pressure, a structural abnormality, or other underlying issues affecting the brain. While it may not always signify a serious problem, further evaluation is often necessary to determine the cause and implications for the individual's health.

What is cervical spondylosis with formainal narrowing and cord flattening?
Cervical spondylosis is a degenerative condition of the cervical spine, often due to age-related wear and tear, leading to the development of bone spurs and disc degeneration. Foraminal narrowing refers to the narrowing of the openings where spinal nerves exit the spine, which can cause nerve compression and pain. Cord flattening indicates that the spinal cord is being compressed, potentially leading to neurological symptoms. Together, these conditions can result in neck pain, stiffness, and neurological deficits.
What does diffuse dicc bulge effacing the ventral aspect of the thecal sac and moderate flattening of spinal cord suggestive of moderate spinal cord stenosis mean?
This means that there is a build up of calcium that has attached to the spine. This result is pressure being placed on any soft tissue in the area. The pressure to the disc ("disc bulge") (This tells the location on the spinal column that the bone spur has formed "effacing the ventral aspect of the thecal sac" is causing pressure to the spinal cord resulting in partial flattening to the cord. This is more common than formerly thought. The term most commonly used is "bone spur". They form anywhere there is bone. If the pain is severe, or the condition is disabling, surgery is recommended to remove the build up of the bone spur.
What is thecal sac flattening?
Thecal sac flattening occurs when a herniated disc has into the spinal canal that it is pushing on the thecal sac. The thecal sac is the membrane of dura mater that surrounds the spinal cord and the cauda equina.
