Hello,
Thanks for the query.
As per your description minor disc bulge in the neck is a possibility.
When did the symptoms start? Is there any history of trauma of heavy weight bearing? What is your occupation? Is the pain radiating to arms?

Symptoms started 2, 3 days back. No trauma, injury or heavy weight bearing. I am a government employee sitting in front of computer most of the time in a day. The pain is not radiating to arms. Rather than pain numbness and some kind of heaviness is there. I have a feeling of heavy eyelids but when I look into the mirror it is not there. But always I have a heavy eyelids feeling. I am 80 kg in weight and 164 in height. Just now when I am typing this I have slight pain and heaviness feeling in both sides of neck and on some part of jaw also.

Brief Answer:
Better to get an MRI spine

Detailed Answer:
Hi,
I have gone through the report. The CBC results are fine and nothing can be attributed to your present symptoms.
Your symptoms are more likely consistent with cervical spondylosis or disc related problems like disc bulge.
You can get an MRI cervical spine with screening of whole spine.

Sir in my CBC report lymphocytes level are little high. Is it a matter of concern. I have repeated the CBC in other lab also. Where lymphocytes came normal. What may be the reason for the variation in the lymphocytes value. And if it is 60, whether it is a matter of concern.

Brief Answer:
It is not significant

Detailed Answer:
Hi,
It is not significant, lymphocyte count is a non specific marker and can be increased in many condition like minor infection, in your case it is not related to your symptoms.
Thanks
