A member asked:
Had an mri of my cervical spine done. results says mild disc bulge that abuts the right ventral surface of the thecal sac. does this mean i have spinal cord compression ?

Your description of the MRI depicts a minor disc abnormality which does not compress the spinal cord or emerging nerve roots, and indeed would be quite unlikely to cause any profound symptoms or signs. Certainly, not a need for surgery or injections based upon your report.
