It is likely to be muscular pain.

Detailed Answer:

Hi
Thanks for your query

I'm Dr Sudhir Kumar

I have gone through your query and understand your concern. It is likely that you are having muscular pain. Analgesic such as ibuprofen is helpful in pain relief. Vitamin and trace elements supplements are of help.You can get your vitamin D test to rule out its deficiency. If found low you can take supplements of vitamin D3. MRI of cervical and thoracic spine is helpful in exclusion of local pathology.

You can discuss with your doctor about it.

Hope your query get answered. If you have any clarification then I will be happy to help you.

Wishing you a good health.
Take care.
