Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service. I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.
Hi with this clinical picture there are two possibilities.
1. Cervical disc pain
2. Fibro fasciitis.
I suggest you start pain killers and neck muscle strengthening exercises.Physiotherapy would also help. Also please get an X Ray neck to see the condition of cervical spine.
Thanks
