Hello,
It may be due to nerve compression.
For further assessment you may require MRI neck and nerve conduction studies after neurosurgeon consultation.
Further treatment mainly depends upon the underlying condition.
You may require tablet Pregabalin and multivitamin after consultation.
Till then continue physical therapy as advised.
Hope I have answered your query and let me know if I can assist you further.
