What Causes Severe Back Pain, Dizziness And Headaches?
Hi i wanted to know...i recently found out of severe back pain that I have a left cervical rib. My symptoms include spinal pain, headaches, short dizzines, left left arm and hand zinging and sometimes feeling cold. I get pain at the back of my head where my spine meets my head and head feels heavy. I also get heart flutters and have to take deep breathes as though getting a slight anxiety attack. Is this what is supposed to happen with a spare rib or is there another reason?
HI Well come to HCM I really appreciate your concern, most of the time cervical rib remains silent and if at all manifest then it may not be that much sever here in your case some functional elements might playing some role still it is better to discuss with orthopedic surgeon, hope this information helps.
