Hi there.

You could be having muscle spasm in the neck which could be caused by a pinched nerve or neck spine degenerative problem. You can apply hot water bottle to the painful area to relieve the pain and spasm. Avoid bending the neck forwards and lifting heavy weight on the back. You may take pain killer and muscle relaxant combination medicine like Tablet Diclofenac + Thiocolchicoside for relief. Kindly consult your Orthopaedic surgeon for a proper physical examination and diagnosis which will help find the exact cause of this pain and proper treatment.
