In my clinical experience, your symptoms do look like spondylosis...As you r so young, mainly your prolong sitting and wrong neck posture can be a cause. So u need to learn the correct posture for sitting/standing and even lying down. U can also do some self massage at the side of Ur neck (both sides) specially for the muscles coming behind your ear to the front of the neck, do some chin retraction as a regular exercise and nerve glide exercise for your arm/hand numbness.
Next Steps
Visit a good Physiotherapist near Ur area.
Health Tips
Avoid prolong looking down at your phone/laptop. Keep moving at regular intervals
