General & Family Physician,  's  Response
Hi,

First of all, it's sad to know what you had been going through lately. Based on the history you have shared, it indicates that issue isn't arising from nerve entrapment in the spine the pains are due to soft tissue involvement Including tendons and muscle sheaths.

An orthopedic surgeon review and local and topical application of analgesics or anti-inflammatory drugs, as well as oral therapy, may be helpful.

Physiotherapist review is a must and avoids strenuous activities but light exercises under guidance should be done.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Take care

Regards,
Dr Saddiq Ulabidin, General & Family Physician
