Dr. Christopher Ferguson answered

Specializes in Orthopedic Surgery

NSAIDs, PT: This is probably coming from your neck. You would probably benefit from a course of physical therapy, anti-inflammatories, and a cervical pillow. Additional testing may be needed if you dont improve with those treatments. See your doctor for evaluation.
