Hi,I am Dr. Gopal Goel (Orthopaedic Surgeon). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
I have had a pain in the base of my skull and numbness and tingling in my arms when I wake with pain through my neck (as mentioned). I have had pain between my neck and top of arm since June - which is better because of accupuncture and pills - diazipan, (taken) given anatriptalin, anti inflamitaries, pain killers (taken) often and finaly given extra strong painkillers - ok, so now the pain in mainly in one area with stiffness in my neck and pain when looking up. and at night.
I read carefully your query and understand your concern.
The symptoms seem to be related to cervical radiculopathy or a pinched nerve. I suggest using to continue using the painkillers to treat the pain. If the symptoms continue you should consult a neurologist for further evaluation.
Hope my answer was helpful.
If you have further queries feel free to contact me again.
Kind regards!
Dr.Dorina Gurabardhi General &Family Physician
