Hi.
Thanks for choosing HCM.
Your problem seems to be due to a mild compression of nerve roots at the Cervical[neck] level which needs to be assessed by a doctor / Spine surgeon to decide on the therapy.
You may also need a MRI of neck to find out what this could be?
However in the mean time take some rest & give hot fomentation to the neck & apply some pain reliever balms. You may take some vitamins containing B1,B6, B12.
Take care.
