Default Will someone please help me understand my MRI?

C 3-4: No disc protrusion or central spinal canal stenosis. Mild
left-sided uncovertebral joint hypertrophy causing mild left-sided neural
foraminal narrowing.

C 6-7: Small central annular tear with a central disc protrusion
indenting the thecal sac, however no central spinal canal stenosis. There
is bilateral uncovertebral joint hypertrophy causing mild to moderate
right-sided and mild left-sided neural foraminal narrowing.

I do not see the doctor for another month. I understand the tear but its the other part I do not understand. Will this require surgery?
