hello,
it looks like a cervical pain, due to compression of nerves between spine. Does this pain increases on neck movement, is it associated with tingling, numbness in arm or any neck trauma, if yes then it supports the diagnosis. You ll need x cervical spine AP/ Lat view and further may need mri. Till the time he can have tab neurobion forte once a day which is a nerve vitamin. So you should visit nearby orthopedician for investigations, neck exercises.
