Suggest Treatment For Severe Neck Pain

Since Saturday, Feb 7, 2015, I have been having some neck pains. If I slightly tilt my head to the left it pains and to the right also. I sometimes feel the pain in my jaw. I am using a mouth guard at night. The pain travels from my left shoulder, my left back bone, under arm pits, to the side of my left breast, back also and knee caps.

Not sure what is going on. I work in front of a computer all day.

Look forward to hearing from you.
