ashley cervical canal is vital as all the nerve supply to all four limbs pass through this canal.
but decision of surgery depends upon how much is the narrowing and how is affecting which will be decided by cervical spine mri
kindly take opinion of spine neuro surgeon
never take it lightly
what ever the problem is it can be solved very well to your present status
