Do an MRI of spine, I used to have similar symptoms. did MRI, visited neurologist, then physiotherapist. After half a year they brought me back to normal life. In my case that was enough, no need for spinal surgery.
The cashless system is already working perfectly in Thailand, you can pay every vendor by using QR code. But do you have any idea how foreign tourists can pay with this system in Thailand, as it works only with Thai bank account numbers? No money no honey? ????
