hi
thanks for using hcm
pinching or compression of the cevical vertebral region ,these are all recurrent chronic problems
change of life style is very important
please use a soft cervical collar ,to immobilise or avoid excessive movement of the joint,which progresses the injury.
relaxation physiotherapy exercises will help
you can try with preparations pregablin or gabapentin added with metylcobal amine on daily basis.
these are safe on the kidneys for long term therapy also
take care
