Hi there.
Your symptoms correlate to either of the two diseases :
First and the more likely one is cervical spondylitis along with radiculopathy.......meaning degenerative change in your neck bones along with compression on the nerve roots
For this kindly get a Xray of the cervical spine done.
Tablets nucoxia mr & pregablin will help.
Cervical isometric exercises and short wave diathermy by a physiotherapist helps.
Second and the less likely cause could be Fibromyalgia.
Tab fibromil and pregablin relieve pain in this disease.
I hope my advice is of help.
Good luck.

Hi, Welcome to Health care magic forum.
It appears to be the pain of arthritis of the shoulder, or cervical spondylosis, or may be related to the gastric irritation as it is related the diet.
I advise you to consult an orthopedic surgeon for diagnosis. You may need to have MRI of the neck, and shoulder.
I usually prescribe to my patient with such symptoms neurotropic injections for 10 consecutive days,and then periodically.
Avoid taking spices, junk foods, potato, tomato, egg, chicken, and sea foods.
Take more of green leafy vegetables, pulses, sprouts,and
protein rich foods to hasten the recovery.
Wishing for a quick and complete recovery. Thank you.
