General Surgeon 's  Response
Hi,

I will advise you to MRI cervical spine for better diagnosis.

For these symptoms analgesic and neurotropic medication can be started.
Till time, avoid lifting weights, Sit with support to back. You can consult a physiotherapist for help.
Physiotherapy like ultrasound and interferential therapy will give quick relief.
I will advise checking your vit B12 and vit D3 level.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
Dr. Ivan R. Rommstein, General Surgeon
