What Is The Treatment For Osteoarthritis In The Neck?

I have rather severe osteoarthritis in my neck. I also seem to have flare ups around my throat including pain on right side throat, headaches behind eyes and temples, ear, gland and some joint popping once in a while. I ve had this off and on for a number of years. What is this this?
