Brief Answer:
Can be cervical radiculopathy.
Detailed Answer:
Hello dear, welcome to Ask a doctor's service.
I read your query and here is my advice.
I think this can be related to a pinched nerve on the neck (radiculopathy ). It can be caused by changes on the spine due to degenerative disc disease ,bone spurs ect.
You may need to use anti-inflammatory drugs such ibuprofen or naproxen for pain.
Use muscle relaxers such musxoflex.
Use warm compresses on neck and shoulder.
Hope I have answered the question.
