How Can Headaches And Numbness In The Right Hand Be Treated?

I have been diagnosed with severe cervical stenosis with c3,4,5,6,7. Incredible headaches, frequent burning sensation, numbness right hand and periodic unstableness. 60yrs of age, lumbar curving and stenosis not as bad as the Cervical. But enough for the Doctor to raise legs, hip questions. The treatment for starters is P.T., injections and traction. Does this sound right?

HI, thanks for using healthcare magic

Yes, that is correct. Physiotherapy would be very important in treatment, it would increase strength and stability of the surrounding muscles.

The injections and traction would also be helpful as well.

Medication can be taken as well, if necessary.

I hope this helps
