Neck Pain, Headaches, Arthritis. Undergoing Treatment With Chiropractic. Had CT Scan And X Rays. What Can Solve The Problem?

Hi, My Pain Management office closed suddenly, Without any notice to their patients. I m undergoing treatment with a chiropractor, and am in need of a pain management office in the Peekskill, NY area. I have severe neck pain that radiates to my head and down my left arm. The headaches are constant and at times a 10 on the scale. I had C-Scan and x-rays that show disk problems and arthritis, Can you find a Dr. to help me? Patiently waiting your advise. Lisa

hello madam ur neck pain with radiating pain to left arm indicates that it is a radicular pain caused due to compression of thatcorresponding nerve by a herniated disk.I advise you to have strict bed rest for 2-3 days, wear a hard cervical collar when ever u sit or walk n take it out only when u lie down in bed,take analgesic and muscle relaxants like diclofenac+chlorozoxozone tabs twice aday after breakfast n dinner for 5 days,and tab gabantip-AT(gabapentin 300mg+amytriptiline 10mg) at bed time for 1 week ,one tab pantaprazole40mg before breakfast for 5 days.If u still havesevere pain try to under go physiothery(iIFT) for 1 week.
