Hello,
It may be due to nerve compression at cervical spine level.
For further assessment you may require MRI neck, nerve conduction studies after spine spine surgeon consultation.
For pain you can take tablet acetaminophen.
You may require tablet Pregabalin and multivitamin after consultation.
Do regular physical therapy
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
