General & Family Physician,  's  Response
HI,
I understand your query.
THe cause of your symptoms is problems with your cervical spine. The bulging discs/ narrowing of one sided spinal foramen ( through which nerve comes out ).. c & straightening of cervical spinal curvature ( due to bulging discs C3 to C7 ) all are causing kinking/ pinching/ stretching of cervical spinal nerves .. which supply upper extremity.
Finding the basic cause for your problem spinal surgeon can plan for specific treatment to ease your problems. ( it can be medicines/ physical therapy/ surgery )
Thanks.
