thanks for your question.
yes you need a doctor to order this for you, Plain X-rays, CT scans or MRI of the cervical spine may be needed to evaluate for bone trauma, suspected C1-C2 subluxation, congenital bony abnormalities or osteomyelitis. CT scan or MRI of the brain may be useful to exclude suspected tumours. when the result comes out he will place you on appropriate treatment which you help you recover fully.
