[|Human|] I ve been having this burning and painful sensation at the back of my neck every time I sit down in a chair for a prolonged time. When I turn my head either way, it makes this loud cracking noise. The pain is only on the left side. I ve also been having severe headaches lately.
[|AI|]  Hithank you for providing the brief history of you. A thorough clinical examination is advised along with MRI of the spine. As the pain you are facing might be related to the pinched nerve in the cervical and lumbar spine where you face symptoms of pain and burning sensation. Also, taking an MRI of cervical and lumbar spine should help understand the level of the nerve root pinch and the correlation between clinical finding. I will recommend you to undergo physical therapy as most cases in my clinical practice responds well to physical therapy. RegardsJay In Chat Doctor.
