Hi, thanks for writing to HCM. The description suggests that you have cervical disc disease with radiculopathy. Nothing to panic as the condition is not a serious one. The management for this problem include
* avoid keeping neck excessively flexed for prolonged periods
* use a cervical collar
* physiotherapy for neck muscles strengthening
* analgesics & methyl cobalamine preparations
* cervical traction as and when necessary.
Hope the above measures will make you well. Good day
