[|Human|] I have had chronic neck pain. A few years ago I went to see a chiropractor and he x-ray my c-spine. He said that I have loss of curvature to my c-spine. Over the years my pain has gotten worst. I have been to physical therapy and have seen a physiatrist, and had frequent massages. I am 40 years old  and in chronic pain everyday. I also have a bulging disc in my L4,L5,and S1. Please help. What would you recommend. Thank you, Joyce M.
[|AI|]  Hello and welcome to Chat Doctor, Loss of curvature of cervical spine and bulging disc at L4-L5 suggests spondylitis. Spondylitis is a chronic condition. Maintaining good posture and rest are the key factors which will relieve pain. A cervical collar may be required to maintain good posture. After removing the collar, maintaining good posture is also a must. Exercises of the cervical spine will be helpful in long term. You will need to consult a physiotherapist for the exercises. Thanks and take care Chat Doctor.
