Pain Management for Cervical Spondylosis
Patient Query
Hello Doctor,
I've been experiencing pain in my left arm and shoulder for the last ten days. My doctor diagnosed it as cervical spondylosis, with a reduced margin between C5 and C6. I've been prescribed Gabanil and MR for the pain. What else can I do to manipulate this condition?

Hello,
Thank you for reaching out to Dr. Galen. Please find the below response to your query.
You have to take a course of anti-inflammatory, muscle relaxant, and gabapentin for at least 2 weeks. Physical therapy would help a lot during the treatment period.
Thanks
