I have a burning in my neck that has totally incapacitated me. had a cervical 3 disc fusion 1 1/2 years ago. what is this?

osteo arthritis: You needed cervical fusion most probably for degenerative disease which is essentially same as osteo arthritis with disc degeneration. It is not curable and usually reoccurs over period of a few years. Seea pain management physician.

Time for a Dr. visit: There are several potential reasons including adjacent segment disease, failure to fuse, and musculoskeletal pain. You deserve a new work-up to get some answers and relief. Good luck.
