Thanks for your question on Healthcare Magic.
I can understand your concern.
In my opinion, you should definitely consult spine surgeon and get done clinical examination of spine. You may also need X ray and MRI of cervical and lumber spine.
Spine physiotherapy, painkiller and anti inflammatory drugs are usual treatment.
Hope I have solved your query. I will be happy to help you further. Wish you good health. Thanks.
