Neck stiffness!
There is pain in left at back of my neck and I am not able to move my neck properly. I am not able to look up as well. I feel this is because of my desk job routine. When I try to look up it feels as if something is stuck in my bones or muscles that is stopping and paining. Please suggest what to do.
