I'm no expert but I recently had a neck xray and C5-6 in that case referred to the joint between the fifth and sixth vertebrae from the top of the spine. Bulging disc means the disc that sits between those two vertebrae has come out of place in some way. Minimal compression I'm not totally sure so I wont answer. Loss of lordotic curvature means that rather than retaining the natural curve of the spine, it has become straighter in that area. This condition is Cervical Kyphosis.
