That most probably means that pain tingling or discomfort being experienced is the result of the jell that holds the vertebrae apart and cushions them against shock is wearing away causing pressure to be put on nerves exiting the spinal chord between them.

What is disc space narrowing with vacuum disc phenomena?
The presence of linear radiolucency in the disk space result in space narrowing with vacuum disc. It is associated with degenerative disk disease.
Is a bulging Disc a herniated disc?
No. A bulging disc is a disc that has mildly or severely (depending on what the diagnostics prove) buldged from the intervertebral space. This means that the nucleus inside the disc is intact and still within the disc space, but the disc itself has bulged outward. A herniated disc is the same thing as a ruptured disc in which case the nucleus has exited the intervertebral space and the two vetrebrae are essentially "bone on bone". A bulging disc occurs more often as we age or as repetitive activities weaken the the disc. Herniated discs are more often specifically related to trauma/injury sustained and are more acute (sudden) in onset.
What does it mean if you have an eccentric right disc bulging at L5-S1 with minimal right-side neural foraminal narrowing?
Can you please explain what Lumber Scoliosis with sugnificant degenerative discase, in particular disc narrowing at L2/3 and L5/s1 with osteophytes formation. However, no suspicious lytic lesions were seen within the spinc. Kind regards, Candice Blackmore candiceb@hotmail.co.UK well, the degenerative disc disease means that your disc is slowly being squished down sooner or later there will be bone on bone rubbing and that's no bueno at all!!!! more than likely they will do a artificial disc replacement and the docotrs will go through your stomach right under your belly button. or they will fuse you at L5 S1 like they did me 3 weeks ago.
What is central disc herniation at L4-5 associated with concentric disc bulging and mild narrowing of the right and left neural foramen?
A herniated disc in the low back which makes the foramina (the bony holes on either side through which the spinal nerves pass) narrow. This can result in one or both of the spinal nerves being pinched, causing pain or numbness to radiate down one or both legs. On the other hand, it's possible that neither nerve is pinched at all.
What is a disc osteophyte bar?
An osteophyte is a bone spur that forms usually because of damage to the surface of a joint, resulting in arthritis. A disc osteophyte occurs in the disc space between two vertebrae of the spine.
What is disc space narrowing with vacuum disc phenomena?
The presence of linear radiolucency in the disk space result in space narrowing with vacuum disc. It is associated with degenerative disk disease.
What is narrowing of the disk L4 5?
what is narrowing of the L4-5 disc mean and what can be done to treat it
L4 - L5 considerable disc space narrowing and desiccation with broad-based posterior and posterolateral extension of inteervertebral disc with midline annular tear?
broadbased narrowing at the l5/s1
What is Disc space narrowing?
this refers to the disks in the spine ..as we age and other reasons the space begins to narrow between the vertabrae
What is multilevel disc desiccation?
Multilevel disc desiccation is a health condition of the spine. This health condition or disease is the loss of fluid between the discs of the spine. This fluid or jelly acts as cushion for the spine against pain. Multilevel disc desiccation is a degenarative disease.
What is severe disc space narrowing at C5-6?
Mild disk interspace narrowing is the physical description for "mild degenerative disks" or possibly degenerative disk disease.
What is multilevel intervertable disc height loss?
what does multi level loss of disc hydration
What is disc narrowing?

Is cervical spondylosis with multilevel neural foraminal narrowing most prominent on the left at c5-6 and c6-7 considered an ssi ssdi disability?
Cervical spondylosis is one of the most common degenerative disc conditions. When multilevel neural foraminal narrowing is most prominent via MRI, this shows where a nerve root is potentially being impinged.
What is narrowing of the the thecal?
The narrowing of a thecal sac depends on where it is located. It might be a bulging disc or a pinched nerve.
What is Disc narrowing with spurs?
means that your disc is becoming smaller and smaller (compressed) and that there are fragments of bones on your vertebrates
What is C3-c7 neural foraminal narrowing?
Narrowing of the neural formina at the C7- 1 was a narrowing of the spinal canal where the nerve roots exit. This can occur with or without disc protrusion.
