Hello

This appears to be the cervical radiculopathy. Need an MRI. When there is a change in the normal anatomical position of the bone of the vertebral column this may lead to disc compression and interim provided nerve root entrapment.

Using cervical collar, hot water fermentation will help stabilize the spine and reduce muscle inflammation.

Post this static neck exercise, inter-scapular muscle strengthening exercises, shoulder stabilization exercises will help reduce the symptoms and get good outcome score.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
