Hi, it appears to be the cervical spondylosis, or may be the metastasis of the breast cancer. I advise you to consult a surgeon for diagnosis and treatment.
I to my patient with such symptoms prescribe, till it is diagnosed neurotropic injections, for 10 consecutive days, and ofloxacin for 5 days, and antipyretics for pain. Thank you.
