Hello. I'm am 35/m. Felt pain in the the upper back and severe pain along the hand, index finger numb for 3 days. No vomiting, giddiness. Got x-ray and mri done. Diagnosed with cervical spondylosis (discs touching the nerves also) two days ago. Took covid vaccine one day ahead of diagnosis. Doctor prescribed tab. Meftal forte, chyrol forte, clamnil plus for 15 days along with cervical collar soft. Started this medication from one day. Pain not severe now. The question is- I am experiencing muscle cramps from shoulder to elbow in the night, or when I lie down to sleep on the bed. My friend suggested the use of tabs flexisure-d and pregader-m (pregabalin 75 mg methylcobalamin 750 mcg) twice a day, based on his past experience. Did not start this currently. So can I consider starting it as additional medication for relaxation from muscle cramps? Or by using a combination of doctors prescription and friend's suggestion? Kindly advise.
