I'm not sure what this means - "straightening if the normal cervical largest cyst"??

Basically this part says the overall opinion of the person that reads the MRI.
[Impression: Minimal Degenerative Disc Disease at C5-6 with no central spinal canal stenosis or neuroforaminal narrowing seen.]

Degenerative Disc Disease = DDD for short
small osteophytes & tiny anterior osteophytes = I think fairly normal for middle age - I have some & my sis does too

What is your age?
What symptoms or pain are you having?
If you can describe them and the locations we might be able to help from that angle.

Sometimes the cause of the real pain & symptoms won't show up on the MRI - especially if soft tissue injuries.
