Cervical rib can produce all these symptoms. If the symptoms persist or gets aggravated, surgical excision may be required.
Next Steps
CT / MRI neck will be useful to confirm diagnosis

Pain and some features in upper limbs can happen due to neurovascular compression due to these ribs But I think gait problem may not be associated with it I think u need brain and cervical MRI and rule out simultaneously ENT problem
