Dude, you're good to go with that MRI. Everyone will develop osteophytes overtime. I mean look at my MRI in my sig... I'm 32 (mine came from an injury when I was 20, but I am still not ready for surgery).
You're probably having referred pain from trigger points. Go to a good physical therapist, exercise, move around a lot if you have a desk job, and stop worrying about it. Also don't text with your neck down.
