The numbness/tingling could be paresthesia, which can be caused by radiculopathy, nerve root impingement or compressed nerves - C-spine and/or L-spine - from things such as Kathi cited.

If bone spurs, many people get those with time and with age. If removed, chances are greater that more will appear than not. So, it would be a repeat to have them surgically removed. (Only way I'd consider it is, if the procedure is minimally invasive.)

I'll have to re-read after my doc appointment today.
