Brief Answer:
Fall and MRI changes are unrelated.

Detailed Answer:
Hi,

Thank you for posting your query.

Fall of the ladder is unrelated to the MRI cervical spine findings.

However, the findings are not something to worry about. Most people improve with conservative treatment, with medications (pregabalin) for pain relief and physiotherapy.

I hope it helps. Please get back if you have any follow up queries.

Best wishes,

Dr Sudhir Kumar MD DM (Neurology) XXXXXXX Consultant Neurologist
