Narrowing of neural foramina

Narrowing of neural foramina

Hello,

I have just received the results from my xray of the cervical spine. It says "Slight narrowing C2-C3, severe narrowing C3-C4, C4-C5 neural foramina bilaterally." "Impression: Narrowing of neural foramina". My GP did not offer any treatment advice but referred me to a pain specialist / spinal surgeon. My neck hurts when I turn it to the right suddenly and at the extremes.

Can anybody offer their advice on this problem, and what steps I can take to get better until I wait for those appointments (which could take months)?

Much appreciated.

While you're waiting to see a specialist, Physical therapy and some anti-inflammatory drugs would probably help a lot.
