It's difficult to say without examining you, but it's possible that the lightheadedness you're experiencing is related to the compression of a cervical vertebra on another vertebra, which could be affecting blood flow to your brain. However, it's important to keep in mind that many factors can contribute to lightheadedness, so further evaluation and testing may be needed to rule out other possible causes. In terms of next steps, I would recommend following up with your doctor to discuss the results of your X-ray and any further testing or treatment options that may be necessary. Depending on the severity of the compression and any other factors, your doctor may recommend additional imaging studies or referral to a specialist for further evaluation and management. It's important to address this issue promptly to prevent any potential complications and ensure the best possible outcome.
