Cervical spondylosis

Detailed Answer:
Dear Madam

Welcome to Healthcare Magic

After reviewing your symptoms we can suspect strongly Cervical Spondylosis.

You might need further investigation as it is important to know the involvement of nerve roots. It is also common in post menopausal women with inadequate calcium supplementation.

Recommended investigation.
Cervical spine x XXXXXXX - AP and Lateral view
C reactive protien and serum calcium, vitamin D estimation.

Please review with the following investigations.
Hope information is helpful for you

Thanks
