hi,
your symptoms suggest cervical spondylitis. you need to get a neck x ray to confirm it. shoulder pain indicated nerve impingement and requires treatment. avoid pillows and try neck strengthening exercises. a cervical soft collar will benifit you. donot use pain killers as they only offer symptomatic relief and is not the solution. if problem persistes, consult an orthopedician.
all the best
