Physical Therapist or Physiotherapist 's  Response
hi,

thank-you for providing the brief history of you.

a thorough neuromuscular assessment is advised.

As the pain is radiating in nature a thorough neuromuscular assessment is advised along with MRI of cervical spine.

Also, getting a thorough musculoskeletal assessment will help understand the spasm and weaknesses.

Also, undergoing physical therapy will help improve the strength in the muscles and improve the muscle elasticity to avoid recurrent pain and aches.

In my clinical practice, patients with such complaints gets a thorough clinical assessment and MRI. Recommended physical therapy to such patients will help them improve on a overall condition and functional ability.
