Hi
Thanks for posting
You need physical examination and MRI cervical spine to rule out pinched nerve/spinal cord compression for your symptoms.My suggestion would be visit a Orthopaedic/neurosurgeon for the same.
Meanwhile you may take Ibuprofen along with muscle relaxant like Thiocochicoside and pregablin under medical guidance.
Hope this helps.
Take care
