Hi I am Chat Doctor. I had gone through your question and understand your concerns. Maybe you suffer from inflammation of the origin of the cervical muscles or some of the muscular tension. I suggest you take an anti-inflammatory and extender of the muscles and a topical analgesic with warm compresses work before going to sleep to give you some rest and relaxation and painkillers only when necessary in order to avoid stomach ache. I hope you work on the x-rays of the cervical spine and display them on your own doctor. Hope the above information helps you. Any further clarifications feel free to ask.
