hi,
thanks for writing to healthcare magic

you seem to suffer from spasm of trapezius muscle(neck muscle)

please take following treatment:
1. Take rest for 2-3 days.
2. Use a soft cervical (neck ) collar to support your neck whenever you are
upright
3.Avoid any strenuous activities including driving, using too much
computers.
4.Do hot fomentation 3-4 times a day.
5.take mild antiinflammatory like ibuprofen or naproxen.
6. once pain subsides you will need to learn isometric neck exercises to strengthen your neck muscles. your physiotherapist should help you with that.

hope i have been of help.
please take care
thank you
