Do you have an extra vertebrae in your spine>?


Question:
I recently went to the E.R. for severe neck pain. They took several x-rays while I was there, in those they found that I have an extra vertebrae, and one vert, that could have split into two. What its doing is pushing the vert. in my neck out to the right, thus the pain. I really haven't found much out and haven't seen my regular dr. cz he moved outta state.If any one who reads this has similar information please give me all the details. My mom and brother both have the same pain, the same bulge in our necks which makes me think that it is genentic.

Answers:
It is possible to have an extra vertebrae. which can cause you to be long wasted or have a longer neck. It is also possible to have one less vertebrae, which could make you shorter. The human body is not perfect. It is possible to have one leg shorter than the other or one arm longer than the other.
