Hi thank you for trusting HCM I read your query and understand your concern First I am sorry for the symptoms you are suffering but you have to be calm as your symptoms don t lead to any risky disease In my opinion it may be a protrusion or a minimal disc herniation but further examination are needed to confirm my doubt As you are suffering two different region pain it is reccomended that you first undertake a neurological exam and then schedule neck and lumbar MRI Meantime continue your pain treatment to avoid pain You be need to wear a lumbar fortress and probably a cervical collar during your working hours Discuss with your doctor about my opinion Hope I have been of help Wish you good health and fast recovery Feel free to ask for further questions or doubts Best regards Dr Eris Ranxha Neurologist
