Tweaked A Muscle In Neck, Diagnosed Cervical Spondylosis, Degenerative Changes, Whole Rib Cage Painful. Is This A Cause ?

Yesterday I tweaked a muscle in my neck on my way home from work. Felt mainlky when turned to the right. I put a heat pack on going to bed. Woke up this morning and my whol back of my right rib cage is so painful.

i have been diagnosed with cervical spondylosis and degenerative changes in C6 & 7 in 2009. Is this the cause? i never had pain in my ribs before due to it.

I am 10 weeks pregnant so just took paracetemol. Before i would take Lyrica and a muscle relaxant
