Brief Answer:
Get evaluated by a neurologist

Detailed Answer:
Hello,
I have gone through your question and understand your concern.
These symptoms maybe due to cervical spondylosis.
You need to get examined by a neurologist and get investigations like MRI cervical spine.
Pain killers with muscle relaxant should be tried.
Pain modulatory drugs like pregabalin or amitriptyline or Gabapentin can be used too.
Hope you found the answer helpful.
Do get back to me for further information.
