Hello
Cervical pain issues are quite common...try to have some good manual therapy sessions and first come to a normal state of relaxation
Keep in mind that reducing pain and coming to a normal pain free state is important ,but more important is to get awareness about your specific condition and then maintain your cervical spine health properly so that these pain episode decrease in there frequency.
*Get some good detailed assessment and consultation about your spine.
*Keep track of calcium / vit d / vit b to maintain them as if there levels decrease then they add to persistent pain.
*Keep good Posture and specific combination of stretching and strengthening exercises for your spine.

I'm sorry to hear that you have been experiencing cervical pain for 8 years. It's possible that you may have an underlying condition such as a herniated disc, arthritis, or a pinched nerve that is causing your pain. However, it's important to consult with a qualified medical professional for a proper diagnosis.
Regarding the increase in pain after undergoing IFT, it's possible that the treatment aggravated your condition. IFT is a type of electrical stimulation therapy that is used to reduce pain and inflammation. However, not all patients respond positively to this treatment, and it's possible that it may have exacerbated your symptoms.
Next Steps
I would recommend that you consult with a healthcare professional, such as a physiatrist, orthopedist, or neurologist, for a proper diagnosis and treatment plan. They may recommend imaging tests such as X-rays, MRI, or CT scans to assess the condition of your cervical spine. In addition to this, they may suggest alternative therapies such as manual therapy, acupuncture, or yoga.
It's important to keep in mind that each person's condition is unique and what works for one person may not work for another. Therefore, it's important to work with your healthcare professional to develop a personalized treatment plan that suits your needs.
