Hi,
You need to undergo some sort of investigation like cervicothoracic X-ray and Vitamin B12 level before coming to any confirmed diagnosis.
For temporary pain relief tablet-Dan MR can be taken. Hot compression can also be helpful. Orthopedic consultation would be helpful after the above investigations.
Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
