See doctor: Pain in the neck travelling to both arms can be due to problems with the bones at the neck, the most common is wear and tear, it is important to tell your doctor about this problem especially if you had trauma to neck, fever, unexplained weight loss, on chronic steroids, having neurologic signs like pins and needles or weakness in the arms or intravenous drug user

Nerve compression: If this has been going on for a while it may be due to a nerve root compression - a condition called cervical stenosis. It's it's a more a cure problem it could also mean a heart condition such as angina or even a leaking aneurysm. In any case, the safest thing is to do is to go to your nearest urgent care clinic or emergency department for further investigation

Pain: This can be and is likely some type of neck problem. Stenosis or disc. However, cardiac and in particular aortic problems can present this way.
