Suggest Treatment For Severe Back And Neck Pain

I have have severe back and neck pain. I have been told I have cervical spinal stenosis and I am on paid medication (Tramadol and felxril) Neither of those seem to be working and I starting week 3 with this pain. It hurts to bend over and turn more neck. I have limited mobility and pains shooting down my arms every now and then. I am a NHL cancer survivor (diagnosed 2008). Could there be any relation to that?

Hi YOu are an NHL Cancer Survivor and are suffering from Cervical Canal Stenosis. In my opinion Cervical Canal Stenosis has generally nothing to do with cancer. In your case I would to suggest adding muscle relaxants and physiotherapy to your current treatment protocol . Regular exercises also help to strengthen the muscles and prevent recurrences.
