No abnormal pre/paravertebral soft tissue shadow Normal vertebral alignment is maintained. Vertebral bodies appear normal in height. this was done last May 24,2016. At present Im having pain and numbness on my right shoulder radiating to my right hand. I dont want surgical approach. Can you advice me.
Your report is suggestive of spondylosis. I will advise you to get some physiotherapy sessions which will help you to get rid of pain and numbness. There is nothing to worry as it is easily manageable by physiotherapy.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
