Welcome to Health Care Magic. Thank you for posting your query.
I can understand your concern.

Now, this pain and cramp like sensation in the neck may be due to a muscle spasm or it can be due to cervical spondylosis.
In cervical spondylosis , the pain radiates to the arm. In your case towards the right arm.

I would suggest you to avoid lifting heavy weights much . Follow a low chair- high desk principle that is sit ona low chair and lift the desk up so that you don't have to bend much.

I would suggest you to take Tablet Aceclofenac 100 mg and Paracetamol 500 mg along with Tablet ranitidine 300 mg - twice daily for 7 days.

Apply warm compress over the area.

You can also visit an orthopedician . He/she can correlate clinically .

Post any other question. We will be happy to help.
Have a nice day. Regards.
