There are Mary's reasons that can cause pain in your neck and arm. The most common is cervical disc herniation. Other causes including nerve disease . You need to seek help from a physician to find out what is your underline causes.
You may have developed bursitis. You can try anti-inflammatory medication such as Celebrex 200 mg and start PT. If symptoms persist, I recommend obtaining a shoulder MRI and scheduling for consultation with the orthopedic surgeon.
