What Are The Causes For Tingling In Face And Neck Pain?

my face feels tingly.. went to the doctor earlier this week because my neck had hurt for over a week. It is both sides of my face, and not really numb, just tingly. the doc had some x-rays taken and I have degenerative disk c5/c6, but no herniated disk.

Hi,
From history it seems that due to having cervical spondilitis there might be pinched nerve problem or irritation of nerves passing through C5, C6 vertebrae causing neck pain and face.
Go for physiotherapy, short way diathermy and if require go for cervical traction.
Avoid putting pillow under your neck.
Ok and take care.
