Brief Answer:
Neck spasm

Detailed Answer:
Hi
Welcome to Healthcare Magic and thanks for putting up the query
From the complaints it doesn't seem to be that the symptoms are because of the implant. You are probably suffering from neck muscle spasm or some cervical problem.
A general body fatigue can be due to thyroid disease or some other systemic disease.
You should get a thyroid function test done and consult a physician.
You can take tablet diclofenac for pain relief.
All the medicine prescribed by me will be available only on prescription.
Any further questions are always welcome.
Take care
Thanks and regards
