Well, darling, mild bilateral uncovertebral spurring is simply a fancy way of saying you've got some extra bone growth happening in your neck joints. It's like your body decided to throw a little party and invited some extra bone guests to hang out in your neck. Nothing too serious, just some extra bony decorations causing a bit of a ruckus in your cervical spine.
uncovertbral arthropathy at c4-5
that means you have a bone spur on your vertebra somewhere -- mine are between c5 and c6 for example... prominent with or without disk bulge?...you need to make sure you know the answer to that...
MILD LEFT FORAMINAL NARROWING AT C5-C6 SECONDARY TO UNCOVERTEBRAL JOIN HYPERMETROPHY AND SPUR FORMATION
Uncovertebral spurring, also known as uncovertebral osteophytes, are bony outgrowths that develop at the uncovertebral joints in the cervical spine. These joints are located between the bodies of adjacent cervical vertebrae and are involved in maintaining stability and facilitating motion in the neck. Uncovertebral spurring can result from degenerative changes in the spine, such as osteoarthritis, and may lead to compression of nearby nerve roots or the spinal cord, causing symptoms like neck pain, stiffness, and radiculopathy. Treatment options for uncovertebral spurring may include physical therapy, medication, and in severe cases, surgery to alleviate nerve compression.

Mild spurring is a sign of degenerative joint disease, also known as osteoarthritis. These changes are typical with aging.
Moderate facet arthropathy refers to degenerative changes in the facet joints of the spine. Uncovertebral joint spurring is the formation of bony growths in the joints located in the front part of the vertebrae. Bilateral foraminal narrowing indicates a reduction in the space through which nerves exit the spinal canal on both sides. Overall, these findings suggest a condition where there is compression and potential irritation of the nerve roots as they exit the spinal canal.
Mild right-sided foraminal narrowing secondary to uncinate spurring means that the space available for nerves to travel through is narrowed. The reason for this in this case is the uncinate spurring, which are bone spurs shaped like hooks, are intruding into that space.
Degenerative spurring is a bone condition where the bone starts growing an extension. It is most common in the bones of the feet in people over 60.

Moderate circumferential disc osteophyte formation refers to the development of bony growths (osteophytes) around the circumference of an intervertebral disc, often due to degeneration or aging. Bilateral uncovertebral joint hypertrophy indicates an enlargement of the uncovertebral joints on both sides of the cervical spine, which can occur as a result of degenerative changes. Together, these conditions can contribute to spinal stenosis and nerve root compression, leading to pain and reduced mobility. Treatment may involve physical therapy, medication, or, in severe cases, surgical intervention.
This refers to a herniated nucleus polyposis being the suspected reason for back in the lower back. The space that is supposed to only have cerebrospinal fluid has something else occupying it.
