But was originally told "wear and tear"! This pain is an intense spot on left side of neck deep in where the skull meets the spine. It can be bought on by posture e.g. Sitting reading or at laptop or just peeling spuds! It can be reduced by paracetamol. Just wondering if there is any point getting further treatment? Any feedback appreciated.

Hi
I've just been diagnosed with c5/6 wear and tear degenaritive changes. Seen a neuro surgeon who said surgery will sort the mild intermittent tingling in arm.but wont cure the bad pain in my neck, shoulder and back. Was wondering if you could share your experience of this with your surgery.
Many thanks x
