Please provide some answers:

- Since when pain is there?

Brief Answer:
check up by orthopedic doctor is required

Detailed Answer:
Hello,

Thanks for information.

Neck pain with movement of head suggests possibility of cervical spine problem. Your muscular pain also might be due to some lumbar spine problem.

You need to consult orthopedic doctor for evaluation of such pain as pain is there since 8-9 months.After proper physical examination doctor may advise x-ray/Ct scan/MRI with/without some blood investigations. Treatment can be done after proper diagnosis.

Al so go for serum B12 level also as I suggested.

Feel free to discuss further.
