Neck pain due to nerve
I am suffering from neck pain since July 2020.
Consulted ortho doc & physiotherapist both. X ray also taken. After 4 month taking pain killers, doing all physio exercises I am unable to get rid of this pain.
Morning time I feel ok but as the day passes pain increases. I feel pain in my nerves while stretching. In rest position there is nothing, as I strech my head I feel stiffness of nerves. Pll 🙏help
No other symptoms like headache, fever shoulder pain or back pain.

Persistent neck pain for so much time even after taking medicines and physiotherapy may he due to nerve compression in lower neck region.. condition known as Cervical Spondylosis..
Next Steps
I will suggest you to start with hot fomentation, take analgesic with muscle relaxant tablet, apply analgesic ointment locally, get one X ray of Cervical spine. If there are some degenerative changes, you may require MRI of Cervical spine to find the condition of the nerves and spinal cord..
Health Tips
Avoid heavy work, avoid jerky movements of neck..
