Orthopaedic Surgeon,  's  Response
Hello,

I have studied your case.
Due to compression of this nerve root there is tingling numbness in your arm and pain.
In cervical spine muscle spasm there may be loss of lordosis.

For these symptoms analgesic and neurotropic medication can be started.
Till time, avoid lifting weights, Sit with support to back. You can consult physiotherapist for help.
Physiotherapy like ultrasound and interferential therapy will give quick relief.
I will advise to check your vit B12 and vit D3 level.
Arm circulation can be confirmed by colour doppler.

Hope this answers your query. If you have additional questions or follow up queries then please do not hesitate in writing to us. I will be happy to answer your queries.

Wishing you good health.

Take care.
