Stop using shitty memes and stop slouching over your bike like you are right now dwelling in a basement on a computer and sit up straight.
>>
Keep doing long rides that make your neck and arms hurt and your body will adapt and stop hurting. It takes time just like building endurance in any other muscle.
>>
Get a professional fit at your local bike shop.

Did you ride much before you tried 50 miles? If you never went out much before I'm not surprised that you're feeling it.
>>
Adjust your bars/stem/saddle/seatpost or get a bike fitting

If it's a matter of endurance yes. If it's a matter of a bad fit then that'll just injure OP.

"Hand/wrist/shoulder/neck pain often result from inappropriate handlebar adjustment. It is less obvious how saddle adjustment can cause or relieve problems in this area."

these cured my hand/wrist pains b/c you can switch hand positions. Now i just need to build up a callous baboon ass.

Do neck exercises every day, that pain it's from your lack of mucles.For the arm pain maybe you need a better fit, I have shitty arms and they have never suffered even after pedaling during 4h
