Hello and Welcome to 'Ask A Doctor' service. I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.
First try drugs as Aceclofenac two times and muscle relaxant as Thiocolchicoside two times. Plus any neurotonic containing Methylcobalamin and Pregabalin once a day. As these are prescription drugs, please contact your local doctor he will prescribe these. Maintain proper posture of sleeping and sitting and standing. Sleep on hard bed. If no relief in 2 or 3 weeks, then you may opt for ortho surgey.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
