What you are describing sounds like a nerve spasm. This could be from poor circulation or something like carpal tunnel syndrome, which is from pressure on the nerve. It could even be due to arthritis in your neck irritating the nerves. If it is getting worse, you should see your doctor. He or she can test your circulation and strength to figure out the cause. These are treatable conditions. You need to get it taken care before permanent nerve damage occurs.

Hope this answers your query. If you have more questions, I would be happy to answer them.
