What Causes Neck Pain And Burning Feeling And Soreness In Shoulder Blades?

I woke up Sunday morning and I couldn t move my neck without pain. I took motrin and flexeril all day and Monday morning it felt better so I went to work. Tuesday morning I woke up the same way I did on Sunday so I missed work and took motrin and flexeril. It hurts to move my neck left and right and my right shoulder blade burns and is sore. What do you think it is?

It is called as cervical strain.when our neck is not in proper position in bed during sleep then muscles around neck go in spasm and it cause severe pain and stiffness in neck and one side shoulder.
Now you should go to physiotherapy for ultrasonic therapy if you want quick relief or you can do hot water fomentation cervical collar some muscle relaxant medicine and precautions like not to lift weight in that hand and do not use pillow or use cervical pillow.you will sure get relief within one or 2days
