Hi,
These problems and due to nerve compression in spine. Your spine are going to degeneration changes.
For this you can take methycobalamine 1500 mg daily along with Gabapentin. Avoid forward bending and weight bearing.
You can do hot water fomentation and physiotherapy exercises under supervision.

Thanks a lot Doctor for your wonderful advice and time. Will these combination of medicine/supplement you suggested can fix these nerve changes or they will only provide temporary relief ? i am asking because i am looking for an permanent cure as dealing with it daily is very frustrating.

Brief Answer:
Regular physiotherapy will help.

Detailed Answer:
Hello.
Thanks for writing again.
The medicines that have been suggested will help in relief. The permanent relief can be had after an MRI scan of the spine and starting with regular physiotherapy exercises and back strengthening exercises to decompress the nerves.
Hope this answer is helpful.
