Hi,
Body pain to a certain location where the nerve is pressing could be due to spondylosis (nerve gets compressed between vertebrae). The pain seems to be severe and you have not mentioned any medications. Severe disturbance in the night could be leading to tiredness in the day.
You have not mentioned any sort of cervical or lumbar spondylosis. You need to wear a cervical collar or lumbar support along with physiotherapy and mild exercise to strengthen the muscles. Other than that you will require absolute rest.
The severe body pain suggest another possible diagnosis of fibromyalgia. Certain tender points needs to be evaluated and further medications can be prescribed based on that.
Any further queries, happy to help again.
