Neurologist 's  Response
Hello!

Welcome on Healthcaremagic!

The sharp pain in this region is not related to Parkinson disease.

But, it could indicate possible cervical spine canal compression, leading to such feeling, especially wen bending over.

For this reason, I would recommend consulting with a neurologist for a neurological exam. A cervical spine MRI may be needed.

Hope you will find this answer helpful!
Kind regards, Dr. Aida
