Hi
Welcome to healhcaremagic
After going through your query I concluded that you are having spondylitis of cervical and lumbar spine. Spondylitis is a degenerative disease related to aging. Treatment of it is Diacerine and glucosamine. Analgesic such as ibuprofen is given for pain relief. Neck and back exercises are helpful. You can discuss with your Doctor about it. Hope your query get answered. If you have any clarification then please don't hesitate to write to us. I will be happy to answer your queries. Wishing you a good health. Take care.
