I have been having somewhat of a similar issue though I have herniated discs.

I play computer games all the time and the poor posture for years has my cervical spine curving the wrong way. Though I have herniated discs they're not intruding into my spinal column and my doctors can't really figure out why I have so much shoulder and neck pain.

Question:
Does it seem like your ligaments in your neck (i guess they're ligaments) are always tight?
Do you ever feel pain or pressure radiating to your ears?
Is your pain worse in your muscles? i.e. trapezius, Rhomboid, Levator Scapulae
Or is it worse like bone on bone structural pain?
