Brief Answer:
Cervical spondylosis.

Detailed Answer:
Hi,

I have read your query.

In my opinion you are developing cervical spondylosis, so if you don't care about it, vertigo in addition may also come.

So I advise you to have xray cervical spine in AP and Lateral view and send me the report.

I want to see present condition of disc space of vertebrae of neck region.

Till then have tab. aceclofenac100mg +thiocolchicoside4mg twice a day by prescription of your doctor, because this medicine is not over the counter.

Apply hot packs.

Avoid weightlifting and overhead activities.

I hope it helps.

Thanks,

Dr.CHANDER XXXXXXX XXXXXXX
