It looks like that you are having weak cervical muscles. Are you sit for long hours in front of laptop or drive bike or play any sport. Because these things can make your neck muscles fatigue. I would recommend you to start neck muscle physiotherapy, take muscle relaxant like myoril and apply diclofenec ointment at your neck. avoid using very high pillow.If pain is still persisting than no harmin getting MRI done, this will give us idea whether any thing abnormal in your neck, which can be dealed through surgery.
