Hi,
I have read your details and in my opinion, you are suffering from overuse injury of shoulder muscles and biceps, may have affected the neck also.
I suggest that you take painkillers, muscle relaxants and physiotherapy apart from hot fomentation now. it is likely to take 3-4 weeks.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Take care
Regards,
Dr Gopal Goel, Orthopaedic Surgeon
