I had a mri done this is part of what it said c3-4 disc herniationstenosis with ap of 0.7cm? and indention on spinal cord is this serious?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Normal diameter 1.7: A disc herniation in the cervical spine can be a serious event. Your herniation is causing 60% stenosis. Indentation on the cord can produce permanent neurologic injury, especially if aggravated by motion or additional injury. Please discuss these results with your physician to determine the most prudent next steps.
