Hello sir yes you can take etova Mr. for a short period of upto 2 weeks and no more. Your pain and symptoms are consistent with cervical spondylosis. Have any blood tests been done to make the diagnosis of rheumatoid arthritis? Is there any pain/tingling/numbness in your arms? We need to make an exact diagnosis to help you better.
