Hello dear
I understand your concern
Your symptoms may be due to cervical spinal stenosis/cervical spondylitis.
Clinical examination by neurologist will help in the management.
I would suggest to undergo MRI for confirmation.
Meanwhile take following advises:
Tablet Pregabalin 75 mg once a day at the bed time for one month
Tablet Methylcobalamine 1000 mg once a day for one month
Cervical traction exercises and neck exercise will helpful
Wear Soft cervical collar specially
Do not keep your neck in same position for long time.
Hope this may help you
