Lots of causes but it is likely that the supportive muscle that attaches your scapula to you C spine (shoulder blade to your neck) is in some way stressed. you may also get headaches that travel from your eyes over the top of your head to your neck.
The best person to see for this would be an Osteopath.
See a competent chiropractor for one visit only: it could be a simple first-rib problem or you might need a simple wedge inside your shoe (s). Look at your shoes: do they show uneven wear? If so, you have a problem starting there... Any 'cold'-like signs? If it doesn't improve in 10 days, see your MD.
