I'd go see a doctor! Do it now, before it progresses, it may be treated using conservative treatments now instead of surgical later. But you might get the average "It's nothing but muscle", given some drugs and put on the street. Do back to the doctor and get it recorded that it did nothing. If they would have believed me when I was 23, I might have avoided a lumbar discectomy when I was 26. I was given "It's just a spasm, here's some drugs. Our xray showed no problems" Please.. xray isn't detailed enough. I'm bitter! And I maybe biased, but Chiropractors scare me. I was told I need 6 - 12 months of "adjustments" to cure my pain, but ya know.. I couldn't walk, nor stand the pain. I know it works for some, but it wasn't an option for me. And put me down for "Cervical Herniated Disc"!
