Disc Degeneration: You likely have some mild degeneration of a disc in your cervical spine. It is very common and not a dangerous condition. Often it is not symptomatic but you may develop some neck pain which can be treated without surgery. Occasionally, it can lead to nerves being pinched in the neck which may cause arm pain.
