Sharp pain in the neck since a month

2017-02-28 15:55:56
It started off as a stiff neck on my right side, but as the month went by most of the stiffness is gone, but there is a sharp pain when I try tilting my head to the right side. The pain feels like it is in the base of my skull and down my neck.
