Hi,

Firstly, Sorry to hear about your condition. Coming to the history, I feel this is due to tightened trapezieus muscle. This is a common condition in most people due to weakness of the muscle and this may lead to painful symptoms.

This condition to be provisionally diagnosed as Trapezitis. It means inflammation of the trapezieus muscle. Using hot water bag over the region and strengthening the neck and trapezieus muscle should be of help.

Many things this is a major condition but in my practice I feel one can get rid of symptoms if assessed properly and guided properly. Rest assured, performing regular exercise for the mentioned group of muscles you should be fine in 2-3 weeks of time maximum.

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