I had c5-c-6 fused in 1997. Sucks. I recommend traction. Get a good at home one and attach jump stretch bands. Should alleviate some of your symptoms after a few days. Avoid surgery if possible. You will know if traction will help after a few weeks. If so, avoid exercises like heavy barbell over head presses and upright rows. Heavy flat bench with a barbell may be avoided. Incline press is ok. Hope this helps. Also ice that neck twice a day

I agree with Xxbox! I have had L5-S1 fused and regret it! I also have two other discs out that I refuse to have surgery on. Go to a physical therapist they will give proper advice and help to relieve pain levels. Hopefully it's a quick recovery!
