Please ask your vet to check in the xray for AAI (AtlantoAxial Instability) Sp.
Kole was my 18 month old who had the same symptoms. I blamed his injury on another of my dogs when they got rough with each other. The vet xrayed his back only since he was just sure it was his back. Kept him in a playpen for a week. Went back twice that week for paid meds and recheck because he was not getting better. Screamed each time I tried to pick him up and yet he sat in the playpen and whined for me to hold him. Finally took him to Auburn Vet. Teaching Hospital. We took him in on an IV and they did MRI and found the AAI problem but by this time his system was shutting down. We had to give him up. It was awful. Most vets know nothing about the AAI. I hope it is a pinched nerve and the swelling will go down and he will be fine. But I wish someone had told me about the AAI problem since I had never heard of it. Be persistent with your vet. If I had I might still have my little Koleman. Good luck and let us know what you find out.
