Hi Mr Rank, Thank you for posting your query. First, I would like to reassure you that your MRI findings do not suggest any serious neurological problem. It shows mild cervical spondylosis with bulging of discs (soft tissues located between the vertebral bones), which is pressing the nerves there. For this, you would need to do physiotherapy, including neck exercises. Regarding consular ectopic- a small part of brain at the back-cerebellum, is coming down behind the spinal cord. This finding is usually present from birth and does not cause any problems in most cases. Best wishes, Chat Doctor.
