Neck Pain, Headache. X Ray Shows Prevertebral Disease, Taking Physical Therapy. Recommendations?
Hi Doctor, After some days of neck pain, stifness and headaches, I had an X-ray of my neck. The results reported that I have prevertebral disease due to a muscular spasm. I was prescribed by my doctor to due 10 sessions of physical therapy, take muscular relaxants and rest. After them I felt better but still have some crack sounds and some pain in the upper part of my neck. How it is possible to recover my normal cervical lordosis???
we treat such cases with epidural injection in spine which gives a long term relief
