What is a right posterolateral annular tear with no protrusion in the L5 S1 with disk bulging?
A right posterolateral annular tear with no protrusion in the L5 S1 with disk bulging occurs when the S1 nerve is impinged by the S1 and S2 vertebrae. This is an injury of the lumbar region of the spine, the most susceptible place on the spine to herniation due to the thin and poorly reinforced annulus fibrosis ligament.

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.
What is a Prominent broad based posterior and lateral disc protrusion?
My husband just got his mri report, at c2-c3 minimal left foraminal, c3-c4-3mm posterior central protrusion,c4-c5-posterior annular bulging, c5-c6prominent posterior bulge/broad based protrusion causing right goraminal stenosis, c6-c7 small posterior protrusion.. He has sever pain in his left arm...what should we do..
Can early right posterolateral osteodiscal protrusion with early impingement upon the proximal right C6 cause carpal tunnel?
Yes, early right posterolateral osteodiscal protrusion at the C6 level can potentially lead to carpal tunnel syndrome. This occurs if the protrusion causes nerve root compression or alters cervical spine mechanics, leading to increased pressure on the median nerve as it travels down the arm. Additionally, muscle imbalances or altered biomechanics resulting from cervical issues can contribute to wrist and hand symptoms. However, a thorough clinical evaluation is necessary to establish a direct correlation.
What is an annular disc bulge which is eccentric to the left and there is a mild bilateral lateral recess narrowing left greater than right indicative of?
A bulging disk on the left side.
What does this mean shallow right foraminal protrusion?
A shallow right foraminal protrusion refers to a mild bulging or herniation of an intervertebral disc that extends into the foraminal space on the right side. This can potentially compress nearby nerves as they exit the spinal column, possibly leading to symptoms such as pain, numbness, or weakness in the areas served by those nerves. The term "shallow" indicates that the protrusion is not severe or extensive. It is often assessed through imaging studies like an MRI.
What is the only sq site for lovenox?
Left and right anterolateral and posterolateral abdominal wall
What does A t 11 anD T 12 a right paracentral disc protrusion with cord effacement meaN?
A right paracentral disc protrusion at the T11 and T12 vertebral levels refers to a bulging of the intervertebral disc that is located to the right side and is encroaching on the spinal cord. This condition can lead to cord effacement, meaning the spinal cord is being compressed or flattened due to the protrusion. This can potentially result in symptoms such as pain, numbness, or weakness in the areas innervated by the affected spinal nerves. Prompt evaluation and management by a healthcare professional are often recommended to address any associated neurological concerns.
What does a small left paracentral disc herniation mean and how serious is it?
A disc herniation can be serious because it can cause severe pain and loss of feeling in your arms and legs. This kind of herniation basically means the rubbery cushion between the bones has moved out of its proper place.
What is C6 7 right paracentral and foraminal disco-osteophytic protrusion?
C6-7 right paracentral and foraminal disco-osteophytic protrusion refers to a condition where there is a bulging of the disc and bone spurs (osteophytes) at the C6-C7 vertebral level in the cervical spine. The term "paracentral" indicates that the protrusion is located slightly off-center, towards the right side, which may impinge on nearby spinal nerves. This condition can lead to symptoms such as neck pain, radiculopathy, or tingling in the arms if nerve roots are affected. Treatment options may include physical therapy, pain management, or, in severe cases, surgical intervention.
What is right neural foramen?
what is disc protrusion in the right neural foramen abutting right L5 nerve root
What does right paracentral disc protrusion at T6-7 with moderate effacement of right anterolateral aspect of thecal sac mean?
You have protrusion of the disc between thoracic six and seventh vertebrae. This protrusion has created indentation on the sac of dura matter on the anterolateral region of the spinal cord. This can compress your spinal cord.
What is right paramedian annular fissure mean?
A right paramedian annular fissure typically refers to a tear or disruption in the annulus fibrosus of an intervertebral disc located towards the right side of the spine. This can lead to symptoms such as back pain, radiating pain, and possible nerve compression if the annular fissure impinges on nearby nerves. Treatment may include physical therapy, medication, or in severe cases, surgery.
