The discs in your back are separated by what are called Facets, one on left. one on the right that are placed up and down (bilatteral. ) Screw it, basically what it means is the the "facets" are breaking down and can cause two discs in you back to be touching each other. But if it's mild than try to do some strengthing to your back muscle and maybe that will help the arthropath and hypertrophy to help you back ligamnts and slow down the process of any degenerative facets.
The facet joints are located in the spinal canal. Bilateral facet arthropathy is arthritis in the facet joints of the back.

what does severe left & right arthropathy mean in lay terms?
ligamentum flavum hypertrophy is a degenerative condition of the spine which most commonly occurs in the elderly where the tendons holding one vertebra to another thicken, decreasing the amount of room available for the spinal cord and the nerves that come off it. It may be associated with inflammation (arthritis) or osteoporosis. It is frequently treated surgically, and it can recur. This one seems a bit complex to answer easily, So if you follow the related link (Hypertrophy of Ligamentum Flavum in Lumbar Spinal Stenosis) you will find more information.

what does bilateral facet arthropathy mean
Bilateral facet and ligamentous hypertrophy refers to the enlargement or overgrowth of the facet joints and ligaments in the spine. This condition often occurs as a result of degenerative changes in the spine, such as osteoarthritis. It can lead to spinal stenosis and nerve compression, causing symptoms like pain, numbness, and weakness in the back and legs.
This type of arthopathy starts in the face creating discomfort within the joints and may lead to the spine. It affects the facet joints that run in our body and cause pain within different parts of body.
The C3 and C4 are 3rd and 4th cervical vertebra. They touch each other toward the posterior surface at the facets. The term mild hypertrophy means that there is a little more than normal the amount of bone there. See link below:
