neck pain

I have alot of neck pain it also goes into the base of my head and across my shoulders. I had an xray & the report reads- slight reversal of normal lordotic curvature. Degenerative disk narrowing and end-plate osteophyte formation C4-C5, C5-C6.No obvious frature or subluxation. What does this mean. What options are there. I've done P.T. and Chro. not much help.  My neck has continued to give me problems. I wake in night and in the am, I can not turn my head. It feels like it is locked in place.When I am able to turn it slightly  I hear crunching with and non stop pain and tightness.
