The nerves in the C3-C6 region of the cervical spine primarily control motor function and sensation in the neck, shoulders, and upper arms. They also play a role in controlling certain muscles involved in head movement and shoulder elevation.
Narrowing of the right C6-C7 intervertebral foramen refers to a condition where there is a reduction in the space through which the nerve roots pass as they exit the spinal cord at the C6-C7 level. This narrowing can lead to compression of the nerves, resulting in symptoms like pain, numbness, or weakness in the neck, shoulders, arms, or hands. Treatment may involve conservative measures like physical therapy, medication, or injections, while severe cases may require surgery to relieve the compression.
The C6 nerve root gives rise to the musculocutaneous nerve, which innervates the muscles in the arm such as the biceps. The C7 nerve root gives rise to the median nerve, which innervates muscles in the forearm and hand as well as provides sensation to the palm and fingers.

To add the values in cells C3 and C7, use the formula =C3 + C7. To multiply the value in cell C3 by the value in cell C6, use the formula =C3 * C6. You can enter these formulas in any empty cell to obtain the results.

Bilateral foraminal narrowing at the C3 through C6 levels refers to a condition where the openings (foramina) between the cervical vertebrae become constricted on both sides, potentially compressing the spinal nerves that exit through these foramina. This narrowing can result from factors such as degenerative disc disease, bone spurs, or herniated discs. Symptoms may include neck pain, radiating pain, numbness, or weakness in the arms. Diagnosis typically involves imaging studies like MRI or CT scans to assess the extent of the narrowing.

The indentation of the thecal sac and the osteophyte and disc complex at the cervical levels C2-C3, C3-C4, C4-C5, C5-C6, and C6-C7 suggests the presence of degenerative changes, such as disc herniation or bone spurs, which can put pressure on the spinal cord and surrounding structures. The mild circumferential narrowing of the lower cervical spinal cord indicates that there may be a degree of spinal stenosis, potentially leading to symptoms like neck pain, numbness, or weakness in the arms and hands. Overall, these findings reflect the need for further evaluation and management to address any neurological implications.
C5, C6, and C7 disc prolapse refers to the herniation of intervertebral discs in the cervical spine, specifically between the C5-C6 and C6-C7 vertebrae. This condition can lead to nerve compression, where nearby nerves are pinched, causing pain, weakness, or numbness in the arms. The compression of the thecal sac indicates that the protective covering of the spinal cord and nerves is being pressed upon, which may lead to further neurological issues. The inability to see the exit of the thecal sac suggests that imaging may not clearly show where the nerves exit the spinal canal, possibly complicating diagnosis or treatment.
Better referred to as a cervical radiculopathy, although some will say it is a trapped nerve or a pinched nerve. There 8 nerves that come out of either side (right or left) of your neck or cervical spine. Because they come out of the cervical spine they are named from top to bottom C1, C2, C3, C4, C5, C6, C7, & C8.
A herniated C5-C6 disc primarily affects the cervical spine and may compress surrounding spinal nerves, but it is unlikely to directly damage the vagus nerve. The vagus nerve originates in the brainstem and travels through the neck, but it is not located in the cervical spine where the C5-C6 disc is situated. However, severe cervical spine issues can potentially lead to broader neurological complications, but direct damage to the vagus nerve from a C5-C6 herniation is not typical.
