Hello! Read your question and understand your concern. I would say that the calcifications is indicator of a chronic process, so you have chronic degenerative changes of the cervical column. The spinal canal is not severely compressed, and that is a very good thing. I don't think that surgery is needed. I would recommend you to hold a cervical collar and do a lot of physiotherapy. For the pain I would recommend Gabapentin or amitriptyline, but these Chat Doctor. Hope to have been of help! Best wishes!
