When I tilt my head down, pain shoots straight down my neck to middle of my back. Mainly in between my shoulder blades. Dull, aching pain continues then for about 15 minutes.

Upper back -Shoulder blade pain, pinching and strain. Sore sides of the neck. Bending the neck down increases the pinching and pain in shoulder blades. So times this leads to headache on the back of the head.
