constant ache in right neck muscle
 

I have constant ache in my right neck muscle, not in the throat. no lumps, knots, or bumps. no swelling. have not strained my neck muscle. when I turn my head to the right it feels like that is a big knot there, it aches when I swallow. the most recent new doctor said I have arthritis in my neck, which is entirely possible, however I didn't care for his connection to my neck muscle. the ache runs to my right shoulder and down my right arm and into my fingers. this has been going on since November 2013. any suggestions would be great. thanks j
