Take precautions and treatment as advised
Detailed Answer:
Hello,
I have gone through your question and understand your concerns.
The symptoms and attached Mri report are pointing towards involvement of nerve root exiting from cervical spine region.
The compression is not severe and seems to be reversible with appropriate management.
You need to follow following advices.
Avoid lifting heavy objects, overhead loads.
Do regular isometric exercises of cervical spine under guidance of a physiotherapist.
Take pain killers with muscle relaxant for 10-14 days.
Also take pregabalin or amitryptiline for pain modulation.
Surely you will get benefit in short time.
Avoid gym during this period.
Hope you found the answer helpful.
Do get back to me for further queries.

AM I SUFFERING FROM DEGENERATIVE DISC DESEASE OR ANY OTHER
Less likely to be degenerative disease
Detailed Answer:
Hello, Welcome back to HCM.
Degenerative disc disease occurs due to increasing age or vitamin D or calcium deficiency.
At this age bony changes are less likely in absence of vitamin D deficiency.
The possibility of disc prolapse leading to nerve root compression is more likely.

You can get your vitamin D levels too.
Continue treatment and physiotherapy advices as given previously.
Wishing you good health.

I have reviewed all your MRI images.
The changes of degeneration are early and disc prolapse is the main cause of pain.

Get regular neck physiotherapy.
Take calcium and vitamin D supplementation if deficiency found in reports.
