[/INST] Hi, Welcome to Chat Doctor forum.  It appears to be due to the anxiety, and tension. The other causes may be the hypertension, spondylosis, cervical color etc. I advise you to consult an orthopedic surgeon for diagnosis and treatment. You may need to have M.R.I. for diagnosis.  I usually prescribe to my patient with such symptoms alprazolam at bedtime for one month. Neurotropic injections for 10 consecutive days, and then periodically, calcium supplements, and painkillers.  Avoid taking potato, other tubers, tomato,egg, chicken, and and seafoods.  Wishing for a quick and complete recovery. Thank you. </s>
