Brief Answer:
Posture related issues

Detailed Answer:
A typical posture when you sit infront of computer causes this kind of pain and the location you described.

I suggest you to learn the table ergnomics in the office and follow it long term to avoid these cumbersome and debilitating pain that can lead to unproductive hours in office.

You can type for Ergonomics in Youtube and watch videos on how to sit in front of computer, TV and sleep postures.
