Sorry to hear you're in pain. Whenever I've had a pulled muscle in my neck, the pain usually eased off in about ten days. Just a thought, though. If you sit at the computer for long periods of time, it can play havoc with the shoulder muscles especially if your posture is bad or your chair is the wrong height. There are loads of websites giving advice on posture and computer use. Hope the pain goes soon.
