Hi I have a pain in my neck from Saturday. I have consulted a doctor and as per the xray and diagnosis he informed there is a slight tear ( or scratch ) in the disc of upper portion of spinal chord. Just below the neck. I find very difficult to sleep in any position. I have the xray image. Kindly suggest me your best advice. I can send the X ray image as well

If your xray is there can you send me. But as per your pain xray is not suggestive of any type of tear in disc because disc is not visible in xray. And as per my suggestion you should do an MRI of cervical spine to get the confirmation of disc tear. Thanks
