[|Human|] My MRI indicted that I have a bulging disc that is forming the ventral surface of the cord without abnormal cord signal (C2-C3) Also, C4-C5, C5-C6 moderate to severe canal stenosis impinging upon the cord without evidence of acute myelopathy or myelomalacia I am planning to see a Neurosurgeon but wonder how serious this situation is in relation to possible permanent injury. Thank you
[|AI|]  Hello, The report suggests that you possibly have compression of the spinal roots between C2-6 at varying degrees of severity. You probably have pain, tingling numbness or weakness in the arms (in varying degrees and combinations). I would really need to see the scan directly to know exactly how much is the damage. If you upload the pictures of the scan, I can probably try to help you out with the report further. I think, it would be safe to start a minimal dose of Pregabalin Chat Doctor.  However, since symptoms are not mentioned, I cannot tell you the treatment accurately. Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
