neck pain: if the pain in your neck is one-sided, and it involves 1 of your arms, then it could be a pinched nerve in her neck that is causing the symptoms. Local ice to the neck area for 20 minutes helps. If it involved both sides of the neck, both arms then the issue may be muscular and will respond to ice, heat and over-the-counter medicines. If symptoms do not improve your doctor needs to see you.

You may have an abnormal disc between the vertebral bones in your neck that is pushing up against nerve roots exiting the spinal cord. You need a through orthopaedic evaluation.
