Hi ! this is actually a typical picture of people working in a desk job for long hours in a chronically bad posture. The most common cause for the same is a chronic sprain in the trapezius muscle leading to a fibro-fascitis like picture. You need to lifestyle modifications consisting of correct posture, breaks from the long duration of work, exercises twice or thrice a day and electrotherapy sessions along with some medications. Medications include muscle relaxants and analgesics with shoulder and scapular stabilisation exercises and spinal extension exercises. This has to be assisted with hot water fomentation and electrotherapy in for of ultrasonics or IFT. Please visit your orthopedic and physiotherapist for same. This is completely curable but needs you to give time for yourself. All the best !! do read my blog on low back ache. would answer most of your queries
