Neck pain balance problems

2019-04-14 19:51:35
I am a software engineer by profession. I have headaches at times and lately my neck hurts as well. While standing or walking at times I feel I am losing balance. And even while seated at times I feel I am losing balance. And while standing I feel like losing balance and feel a little shaky in my legs. It's troubling my day to day activities. Please advice what could be causing this.
