Cervical spine discs

Question

Asked for Male, 24 Years

Hi, I'm 24 years old, 6.1 ft tall guy and I got to know that my cervical AP canal dimensions are 1.2 cm, 1.0cm, mentioned in my MRI, and these are fine without any bulge or herniation. So I wanted to know what is the normal or average discs size or AP canal dimensions of Cervical and lumbar spine? And if mine is smaller then why is it so at such an early age? Is this some kind of desease?Will I be able to life a life for long without surgery or eventual I'll get stenosis? Please let me know, thanks much! P.S: I also have two herniated discs whose dimensions now are 0.8 cm and 0.9cm. With grade 1 stenosis mentioned.
