Which specialist to consult for neck pain radiating to right arm?

I have cervical problem from the past and recently I have started experiencing pain in my neck radiating to my right arm. I would like to know what kind of specialist should I see for an initial consultation.

  • Hello,
    You can first contact your généraliste to attest the pain. therefore he can refer you to a specialiste if needed.

  • You have to see a family doctor at first and after his examination, he'll give you a paper for a cervical RMN and after that you'll see maybe an orthopédist specialized on the skull or a neurlogist surgeon.
