Cervical disc herniation

My throat hurts periodically.

First, if your neck is stiff and painful, you go to an orthopedic surgeon, who diagnoses a cervical disc issue, though not a major abnormality. Then, you visit the rehabilitation medicine department for physical therapy and manual therapy. This usually helps you feel much better. However, after some time, your neck becomes stiff and painful again. This cycle has been repeating for about two years. What would be an appropriate treatment plan to prevent neck pain and avoid frequent hospital visits?
