Neck Pain, Numbness In Arm, Tingling In Fingers. Taking Medication, No Result. Suggestions?

I've had right sided neck pain sometimes going into my collarbone for a month now and going to physiotherapy for 2 weeks. My neck goes into spasm especially when I'm driving. This weekend I've had constant headaches, dizzy spells and last night i twice in a row had severe pain in my right ear, like a needle going into my eardrum. Tonight I have developed numbness down my right arm and tingling to my finger tips. I am getting a bit concerned now. I've taken 2 x panadol extra and 1 voltaren rapid tonight but no difference.

Hi,
If you are elderly then from all symptoms it appears that you might be having degenerative changes in your cervical spines giving all problems.
Go for x-ray cervical spines.
Consult orthopedic surgeon and get examined.
Go for physiotherapy daily.
Ok and take care.
