Mild spondylosis at the C5-C6 and C6-C7 levels refers to age-related degenerative changes in the cervical spine, specifically at these vertebrae. This condition can involve the wear and tear of intervertebral discs and the formation of bone spurs, which may lead to stiffness, reduced flexibility, or discomfort in the neck. While it is often asymptomatic, some individuals may experience neck pain or radiating symptoms if nerve roots are affected. Regular monitoring and conservative treatments, such as physical therapy, can help manage symptoms.
Cervical spondylosis is narrowing of the joint space and anterior spur formation C5-6 C6-7. This condition is usually treated with surgery performed by an orthopedic surgeon.
whats problems being create whan the c5 and c6 diffuse annular disc bulge
Cervical spondylosis is one of the most common degenerative disc conditions. When multilevel neural foraminal narrowing is most prominent via MRI, this shows where a nerve root is potentially being impinged.

C5 and C6 are cervical vertebrae found in the neck. Anterior osteophytes of C5 and C6 are bone spurs that have formed on the front portion of vertebrae 5 and 6 in your neck. This can be a very painful condition.
The C5-6 vertebrae are located in the cervical (neck) region of the spine. Specifically, they are positioned between the C5 and C6 vertebrae, forming part of the cervical spine that supports the neck and head.
My wife has been diagnosed C5/6 spondylosis with bilateral exit foraminal stenosis. 1.Can this condition cause severe headaches. 2.What is the best way to treat this condidtion.
yes.
A small disc protrusion at the C5-6 vertebrae means that the disc between these two vertebrae is slightly bulging. This protrusion is causing mild compression on the dural sac, which is the protective covering around the spinal cord and nerve roots. It may lead to symptoms like neck pain, arm pain, or numbness related to the affected nerve roots.
Neither, it classified as the "C6" because the generation before the C6 was the C5 and it too had a Z06. Feel free to go to Smokinvette.com and you can read up on more of the details of this great car!
Mild disk interspace narrowing is the physical description for "mild degenerative disks" or possibly degenerative disk disease.
I have bulging discs at C5-6 and C6-7. I can feel the problem at C5-6, shoulder pain, heavy arm, neck pain, headaches, pain down my arm to my thumb and first 2 fingers. This is in the spinal fluid. But at C6-C7, the Dr said that It is doing more damage. What kind of damage can be caused from C6-7? What are the symptoms I should be looking for. I am trying to wait a month before having the surgery so I will be out of school. Am I causing more damage by waiting?
