[|Human|] For several weeks, I have been experiencing neck pain, primarily on the right side. It is very difficult to move my head in certain positions. In the past few days, the pain now goes down my right shoulder blade and sometimes in my shoulder. I have had a herniated disc in my neck, but it has not given me trouble in several years. Any suggestions or ideas?
[|AI|]  Hello, Thank you for using Chat Doctor . I read your question and understood your concern. I think this might be a progression or exacerbation of your disk hernia of the neck. First you need to do a new MRI of the neck and to compare the results with the old MRI. If the situation is not worse than you can take some analgesics and non-steroidal anti-inflammatory Chat Doctor. If the disc hernia is worse than you need to check with a neurologist specialist and see the possibility of surgery for the hernia if it is compressing the nerve.
