If Clinical symptoms are worsening and symptoms correlate with mri findings surgical intervention may be considered to prevent further progression of symptoms. Consult neurosurgeon for proper examination.

If your symptoms are worsening or you are getting new symptoms then you will need a repeat MRI of cervical spine. You can try some medication like pregablin 50 at bedtime.
