Hello,

Considering the substantial amount of pain involving upper extremities, there sounds possible nerve compression over the cervical region.

It is recommended to take a recent MRI prescription from your consultant and manage the issue more smartly and wisely.

As you must be well aware, primary relief with assisted physiotherapy, analgesic spray and weight maintenance.

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

Take care
