Thank you for your Enquiry. Over the past three years, you have reported experiencing neck pain, spondylitis, pain radiating to the upper back, and even vertigo. As a result, the condition causing the inflammation in your vertebrae is the cause of your ailment, which is radiating to your upper back, arms, and maybe your shoulder. Vertigo is most likely caused by blood vessels or nerves supplying the inner ear's balance organs. Thus, as soon as feasible, seek advice and begin treatment at a nearby physiotherapy facility.
