Orthopaedic Surgeon,  's  Response
Hi there.

I think you have nerve pinching due to a slipped disc in the spine in your neck. I advise you to avoid lifting heavy weights, avoid bending forwards. Eat healthy. Avoid smoking or drinking alcohol. Apply hot water bottle to the painful areas to reduce pain due to muscle spasm. Take pain killer and muscle relaxant combination like Tab. Diclofenac 75mg + Thiocolchicoside twice a day. Consult your Orthopaedician if th pain is not relieved in 7 days.
