Brief Answer:
Get xray done
Detailed Answer:
Hi,
In my opinion you shouldn't ignore all that and get xray cervical spine done in AP and Lateral and then send me the report.
You are XXXXXXX cervical spospondylosis and I want to see present condition of vertebrae andin disc space in your xray.
You can visit orthopedic surgeon and discuss all that with him.
Till then have tab.aceclofenac100mg+thiocolchicoside4mg twice a day by prescription of your family doctor.
Apply hot packs.
Avoid any type of exercise.
I hope you got the point.
Thanks,
