General & Family Physician 's  Response
Hi,
It seems that due to cervical spondilitis there might be having pressure on nerves passing through affected cervical spines giving this problem.
Consult Neurologist and get examined.
He will advice for physiotherapy, short way diathermy and cervical traction if he thinks it proper.
Avoid keeping pillow under neck while sleeping.
Ok and take care.
