Dear patient
Pain in the side of neck with upper limb pain means radicular pain cause of which may be minor disc herniation in cervical spine. You need to consult spine surgeon for detailed assessment. Meanwhile start tab pregalin x 75 mg one at bedtime with tab ultracet twice a day for pain relief. Xray of cervical spine anteroposterior and lateral views may need to be done.
