General & Family Physician 's  Response
Hi, Welcome to Health care magic forum.
As you describe, it appears to be the spondylosis, or some disc problem at the level of the T5,6.
I advise you to consult an orthopedic surgeon for diagnosis. You may need to have an M.R.I. for diagnosis.
I usually prescribe to my patient with such symptoms neurotrofic injections for 10 consecutive days, and then periodically. Supplements of calcium, vitamin D, and pain killers.
Avoid taking potato, other tubers, tomato, egg, chicken, and sea foods.
Wishing for a quick and complete recovery. Thank you.
