Increased pain with current shock type feeling in neck, shoulder.  Have herniated disc, bulging disc.  Any suggestions?
Patient: I have have had documented herniated disc and bulging disc by MRI in neck.  I have had two and the second showed some worsening of neck.  Surgeon did not want to do surgery just for pain.  I agree.  Lately, I have had increase pain in the neck and left shoulder and an electrical current type feeling running down my neck and seems slightly to left.  Can't find a comfortable position.   Muscle relaxers and two aleve tablets do not help. Doctor: Dear you should urgently put cervikal collar,for at least three weeks and remove it during night.Help yourself with pregabalin 150 mg twice daily starting with 150 mg  one week.If pain persist take one tablet Advil.I hope my advice with help you anyway I think the final solution of your problem will be surgery.Wish you all the best
