Hello XXXXXXX

Welcome back again, thanks for the above information,

As per your history and feedback given by you it seems to be like Intervertibral disc prolapse, Discitis, Intervertibral disc bulge or early degenerative changes in spine..etc but not sure or confirm.

For confirmation you are required to undergo MRI Cervco-thoracic spine (investigation of choice/gold standard).

Please under stand the gravity of situation and disease condition of yours, it is must to reach at the diagnosis.

Hence I request you not to delay further and get the MRI scan done and meet a near by Orthopedic specialist for looking deep into the matter.

Hope you understand the situation, delaying will further deteriorate the condition.

By the mean time,

1. Do not lift heavy object,
2. Do not do heavy massage on back,
3. If possible avoid bike riding,
4. Avoid prolong sitting on computer,
5. Avoid any strenuous work which is jeopardizing your neck.

Hope you understand, and will try to follow the instruction,
