Hi...this is due to cerviacl spondylosis...the involved vertebral segment impinging on your artery and spinal cord too..my advice is to get an MRI spine done...to locate the involved segment and with corrective spinal surgery your symptoms will be relieved.Start taking oral tab neurobion and tab methcobalamine..as it wiil prevent any degeneration of nerves.
