Yes your symptoms corelate well with cervical spondylitis...u tried conservative methods also it's better u consult to pain physician near by . Pain physicians are basically graduates of anaesthesia had specialist in chronic pain management with fellowship courses after M.D. they will guide you for best management..they do interventions for this type of pain and u don't need even surgery most of the times.
