Orthopaedic Surgeon 's  Response
Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service.
I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.

In my opinion this feathery sensation( altered sensation) in neck and shoulder is due to pressure on nerve roots in the neck. I suggest you start a combination of Pregabalin and Methycobalamine and get an MRI of the neck.

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