Hello,
I read carefully your query and understand your concern.
The symptoms seem to be related to arthritis of the neck.
I suggest to to do an x-ray of the neck for further evaluation.
Meanwhile,I suggest using anti-inflammatory medications such as Naproxen 500 mg per day.
I also recommend using anti-inflammatory gels such as Voltaren gel for local application.
Hope my answer was helpful.
If you have further queries feel free to contact me again.
Kind regards!
