Hi i am Dr Ahmed Aly thanks for using healthcaremagic site , I had gone through your question and understand your concerns .. In my opinion i recommend physiotherapy with a chiropractor , spinal straightening exercises , maintaining good sleeping and sitting postures , avoid overweight , heavy lifting , vigorous movements will be effective in most of cases . You may use painkillers like advil tabs when needed , hot massages with topical gels , B12 vitamin supplementation , muscle relaxants and in sometimes steroid pills or injections are prescribed for some patients . If pain persists you have to follow up with your neurosurgeon and MRI will show if you have any spinal injuries or disc herniation for proper evaluation and management . Please click and consider a 5 star rating with some positive feedback if the information was helpful. Wish you good health, Any further clarifications feel free to ask.
