What does "right para-central disc protrusion at c5-c6 level" mean?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Disk herniation: The disc material between the 5th and 6th cervical spine has a partial disruption on the right side of the spinal canal. Unless this herniation is causing spinal cord compression, these are usually incidental findings found on many mris.
