I went To Dr and he referred me to go Orthopaedic and then I did MRI.
After 4 weeks My condition are that I have Pain on left shoulder, biceps and sometimes on Hand. No numbness or any conditions so far.
I did 4 PT sessions so far and I felt no progress.
I consultant 2 Orthopaedic they told me conservative management (PT, NSAIDS). and one Neurosurgeon told me to do Surgery Replacement Disc.
I'm taking Painkillers medicines three time after Painkiller I have 2/10 Pain.
I've restricted my movement and doing daily Exercises.
I've very Scared what Should I do.
I'm a Student and doing Data related Job Which I need to use computer at least 6-8 hours. Doctor told it because of your bad posture.
