I got back to working out and could do twenty pull ups under grip and 17 military overgrip in a single sitting. I usually break it down and do about 100 pull ups on back days. I was back to benching over 225lbs just doing reps of 3 to 6. I mostly was doing dumbbell presses regular, decline, butteryfly,and incline. I had no pains from working out at the gym. I went back to ice last week, and I ave this sharp pain in my lower neck to both of my shoulders. It really hurts to get around. I took a week off from everything and properly stretched. I played hockey in a lower league just to fill in and the pain came back. My lower neck and upper back is killing me all the way to the back of my shoulder. Should I go see a doctor or just take a few weeks off from any type of athletic activities? I just don't know what to do. I think I need to take a few weeks off, and possibly give up hockey. The Ibprofen and ice just isn't working anymore.

Definitely see your Doc. You may have pinched a nerve. And don't give up yet and start feeling down, see the doctor, get expert medical advise. Who knows, they may have to do more than an X-ray, possibly a MRI to figure it out.
