Hello all. I am in computer desk job for 10 years. For the past 3 years I am having neck pain from the base of my skull to the shoulders and to my fingers accompanied by burning sensation. MRI shows cervical disc compression with bulging disc at C4 C5, C5 C6 and C6 C7.
I checked with numerous doctors and all asked me to exercise or go for surgery.
The exercises taught by PT dis not help at all.
I dont want surgery. I want to heal with exercises. Can some one tell me what all exercises to do and how often ?
I have a 4 month old to care for. With this pain 24x7 my life has become miserable. I have taken a break from work too.
Please advice

1) Stabilise the neck so you have little or no pain
2) Build up really slowly when you do the exercises
3) Pay attention to your posture Chest Head shoulders neck
4) Find a really good therapist that wants you to get better
5) Once you know which way the neck disc bulges you can start improving it
Meanwhile drink at least 2 -3 litres of water a day hydrate discs
Tuck chin in ala double chin lookup with your eyes and move the head side side slowly for 45 secs 5 times a day
Good luck

My pain is bilateral. So the disc is bulging on either side and rubbing the nerve exiting the spinal cord ?

Since using this I have had very little issues with my neck. Knock on wood. Also be careful about the things you do during the day. Be sure you wear back and neck support if needed.
If if you would like a web site or picture I could PM it to you.
See the many types of neck rest supports on line.
