Haha! NO lah no pet clinic lah....wish i had those tho...

We have 2 clinics....for people, by people! Sounds like cervical/ lumbar
spondylosis...but depending on your age and history plus symptoms...might wanna rule out things like Prolapsed disc or degenereative disc dx...

Also have to rule out vasculopathy...u smoke? Symptoms affected by walking, relieved by rest etc?

Would be good to take some xrays etc...hard to give advice over the net...maybe next time when got time to meet for kopi i take a quick look at u guys lah...
