Thanks for your question on Healthcare Magic.
I can understand your concern.
BYou are having neck pain in specific movements, so possibility of cervical spine related problem is more.
So consult orthopedic doctor and get done clinical examination of cervical spine and MRI of cervical spine to rule out disease.
Spondylitis, osteoporosis, arthritis, Disc prolapse etc can cause similar kind of symptoms.
So don't wait at home. Consult orthopedic doctor immediately and diagnose what you are having.
Hope I have solved your query. I will be happy to help you further. Wish you good health. Thanks.
