Hi. Looks like Upper Trapezius muscle stain.
Give hot fermentation twice a day. Avoid any kind of physical activities which aggravates your pain. Consult a nearby physiotherapist if pain persists again and again.

Probably it should be spasm due to wrong posture. Some muscle relaxant and carnitine should help. Meet an orthopaedician for correct prescription.Dr Vineesh Niranjan. Consultant Orthopaedic Surgeon, Patna
