Hi,
Thank you for posting your query.
Headaches and dizziness are related to migraine. Since you have frequent headaches, you should be on prophylactic medications such as topiramate, beta blockers, flunarizine, etc.
Prolapsed disc is unrelated, and may cause neck and arm pain.

I hope this helps.
Please get back if you require any additional information.

Best wishes,
