Neurologist,  's  Response
Osteophytes and disc protrusion with or without foraminal narrowing is usually present in adults and elderly people due to age related degeneration. Pain without weakness or bladder bowel involvement may be managed by neck collar, isometric neck exercises, drugs for pain modulation like pregabalin , gabapentin, amitryptiline and analgesics like tramadol, Aceclofenac with muscle relaxant. Wishing for your good health.
