Firstly, I would like to clarify that your shoulder alignment can be corrected with posture correction exercises. So you need not worry.
Next your neck and right shoulder pain could be because of neck muscle strain or spasm. I have few questions like How long do you have this pain? Whether the pain started gradually or suddenly? Are you able to move your neck and shoulder freely? Which activity aggrevates or reduces your pain?
Next Steps
You can use Volini gel or spray to the affected site. You can give hot water fomentation for 15 minutes twice a day.
If the pain persists for more than a week you need to consult a Physician or Physiotherapist for further evaluation and treatment.
Health Tips
Avoid using gadgets for long time.
Take some breaks in between your work if you are using desktop or laptop.
Avoid high pillow.
Avoid lying on the affected side.
Avoid lifting weights, pulling and pushing activities.

If you are right dominant...your right shoulder will tend to be a little lower than the left and that's normal.There is no need to worry
Next Steps
For the neck/ shoulder pain you can apply ice pack for about 10 to15 mins...
also continue with your strengthening exercises
for the left side concentrate more on stretching exercises of the neck

Hai saw ur picture showing the shoulder where the right side is slowly lower than the left but u haven’t send the back side posture also we need to see is there any change in the angle of scapula . First of all try to maintain a static posture always practise this infront of mirror . U can use volini gel for ur pain relief.over the neck since ur saying the pain is from the neck to the shoulder it may be trapezius muscle getting spasm . Kindly do gentle shoulder movements of the right side within painful range .later u can proceed to strengthening exercises. Nothing to worry about it . Take care stay safe
