Nerve compression
Hello ,I am a high school student experiencing pain and stiffness in my neck and right shoulder. This issue began about three months ago and has gradually worsened. I consulted a neurologist who recommended an X-ray, which revealed that my nerve is compressed due to muscle straightening.The neurologist prescribed the following medications:
Thiogaba AP
Trugaba NT 100
Illadac DSR
After taking these medications for about a month, I noticed significant improvement, but I am still not 100% better. I can perform my daily activities without difficulty, but I still experience a pulling sensation and a feeling of heaviness on the right side.Since I live in a town with limited access to neurologists, I would like to consult with a specialist online. I would appreciate any guidance you can provide. Thank you!

Continue same treatment, short course of muscle relaxants may be added and start doing Isometric neck exercises after finishing the muscle relaxant course.
Strengthen your neck muscles, your symptoms will improve with that.
If you still have same problem inspite of isometric neck exercises, get an MRI cervical spine.
