Hi,

Thank you for posting your query.

I have noted your symptoms and would like to reassure you that there is no need to worry about mild cervical spondylosis.

The best treatment at this stage is physiotherapy. This includes neck extension exercises. Other methods are IFT, ultrasound and traction for pain relief.

It would be useful to reduce weight along with physiotherapy.

For nerve pain, pregabalin capsules would help.

I hope my answer helps. Please get back if you have any follow up queries or if you require any additional information.

Wishing you good health,
