Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service.
I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.
This is due to Neuropathy. Maybe a spinal nerve in the neck is pinched due to the slipped disc. Get an MRI of cervical spine done.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Dr. Mahaveer Patil
