A right paracentral C5-C6 disk herniation refers to a condition where the intervertebral disk between the fifth and sixth cervical vertebrae in the neck has bulged or ruptured, pushing into the spinal canal or nerve pathways on the right side. This can potentially compress nearby nerve roots, leading to symptoms such as pain, numbness, or weakness in the neck, shoulders, arms, or hands. The term "paracentral" indicates that the herniation is located towards the center of the canal but slightly off to the right. Treatment may vary depending on the severity of symptoms and can include physical therapy, medication, or surgery.
If you are symptomatic then you may require surgery. Your spine specialist is the best judge.
Paracentral disc protrusion is a disorder of the spine that causes neck and back pain. An intervertebral disc is swollen or bulging and is putting pressure on the nerve roots when you are diagnosed with this disorder.
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.

You need a medical diagnosis and opinion for this question. THIS is NOT the site to do it.
You have to go for some form of discectomy. Like say microdiscectomy by way of laser or scopes. Here you remove the material of nucleus pulposus to give relief to the patient.
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.
Between the fith and sixth cervical vertibrae (neck bones) the cartilage disk between them is sticking out a bit to the left. This is most likely pinching the nerve root. This particular nerve root serves the biceps and wrist extensors possibly causing some weakness. There may be and pain/numbness that runs down the arm to the thumb. Reflexes in you mid-forearm may also affected.
Cervical spondylosis is a degenerative condition of the spine involving wear and tear on the cervical vertebrae and discs. Paracentral disk protrusion refers to an abnormal bulging of an intervertebral disk towards one side of the spinal canal, potentially compressing nearby nerve roots or the spinal cord in the cervical region, leading to symptoms such as neck pain, arm pain, and weakness.
