There are two types of stenosis. One is in an artery and the second is in the vertebral canal. The term focal means that this narrowing is not large or lengthy. If it is in the vertebral canal, there can be no symptoms at all or mild ones. If in the artery, there's more concern because this narrowing can cause lack of oxygen and nutrients to get to the area the artery is going. There is surgical treatment for both.

A broad-based disc bulge at the C3-C4 and C5-C6 levels refers to a condition where the intervertebral disc is protruding outward, affecting a wide area rather than a focal point. This bulge can encroach on the spinal canal, leading to mild central stenosis, which is a narrowing of the spinal canal that may compress the spinal cord or nerve roots. While mild, this condition can potentially cause neck pain, stiffness, or neurological symptoms depending on the extent of the compression. Monitoring and, in some cases, conservative treatment may be recommended to manage symptoms.
