Hello and welcome to Health Care Magic Forum, take neurobion tablets and consult a physiotherapist, give hot water fomentation for
3 minutes then cold water for 1 minute and carry on this chain ,the more you do ,the more you would get relieved.
Take some pain killer and take consultation with a neurologist,take care
