Discogenic neck pain: Yours are common symptoms of neck problems, including disc issues. When you pull (or "traction") your head, that "decompresses" the discs of the neck. Although your symptoms could be caused by other issues, discogenic sources are most likely. Ease into stretching and strengthening of the neck and use ointments and anti-inflammatories (unless there is another reason not to).
