Brief Answer:
Possible cervical spinal disease.?

Detailed Answer:
Hello, Sir

I can certainly understand your concern.

As per your symptoms , you possibly seem to have cervical spinal disc disease.

For this, I advise you to get an MRI spine at the earliest to decide on the further course of management.

Meanwhile I advise oral pills of PREGABID and MATILDA ER for 2 weeks to improve the symptoms.

Please check with your physician if he shares my view and if can prescribe these pills to you.

Post your further queries if any.
Thank you.
