I have studied your case. Due to compression of this nerve root there is pain associated with facet arthropathy . I will advise you to MRI cervical spine for better diagnosis.
For these symptoms analgesic and neurotropic medication can be started. Till time, avoid lifting weights, Sit with support to back. You can consult physiotherapist for help. Physiotherapy like ultrasound and interferential therapy will give quick relief. I will advise to check your vit B12 and vit D3 level.
Neck and shoulder daily exercises are important to prevent recurrence.
