Needs to be investigated.
Detailed Answer:
Hi Mr XXXXXXX
Thank you for posting your query.
I have noted your symptoms. You need detailed evaluation to ascertain the cause of your symptoms.
Since you have pain involving one side of body, we need to look at the opposite side of brain (right side of brain in your case). This can be done by doing an MRI scan of brain. Commonly, we need to exclude ischemia (lack of blood supply to brain) or infection.
In addition, we also need to do MRI scan of cervical spine, as pinching of nerves in the neck can cause similar symptoms.
I hope my answer helps. Please get back if you have any follow up queries or if you require any additional information.
Wishing you good health,
