I've been having a lot of neck and shoulder spasms. i can't stretch my neck that much because it feels too stiff. what can i do?

Warm compresses: Try some warm compresses on your neck 3-4 times a day and then gentle stretches after your neck is warmed up. If this does not work after a week or so see your doctor. You may need a referral to physical therapy.
