I am suffering from pain shooting down from my neck down to my fingers. Why does it occur?

Hello,

Welcome to icliniq.com.

It is likely a cervical pain, due to compression of nerves between the spine. Does this pain increases on neck movement, is it associated with tingling, numbness in the arm or any neck trauma, if yes then it supports the diagnosis. You will need an X-ray of cervical spine AP/lateral view, and further may need MRI. Till that time he can have Tablet Neurobion forte once a day which is a nerve vitamin. Also, You will need Pregabalin after diagnosis is confirmed. I hope this helps you and get back if you have any doubts.
