Hi,
Thanks for posting in HCM.
I understand your concern.
The symptoms what you are experiencing is clearly due to cervical disc compression.
Your symptoms can be overcome by treatment of herniation of C5 - C6. There are various modalities of treatment which is available. You can choose the one which would suit you.
Kindly consult Orthopaedician in this regard for clinical evaluation and appropriate management.

All the best.
