Hi
Hope this message finds you in good health.
I have gone through your complaints and understand your concern.
U seem to have compressed a nerve in the neck somewhere that might be causing radiating pain. Possibility of a cervical disc prolapse,or an injured nerve is likely.
I suggest you get an Xray of neck and that region as well as an MRI and Nerve conduction velocities to find out the exact cause.
Physiotherapy,analgesics,anti-inflammatory drugs should help.
Nothing to worry about.
I hope your question has been answered.
If you have any follow-up queries,feel free to consult me anytime.
Thanks,Take care,God bless.
