GREETINGS, you should see a doctor or chiropractor probably. Right now, ice it, lay down with ice on it, lay flat on your back. After about 5 minutes, get up, put moist heat on it or take a hot shower, if you have anything with menthol in it, rub it on your neck, now gently stretch, try to touch your chin to chest, then lean your neck/head back as far as you can looking at the sky, then try to touch right ear to right shoulder, left ear to left shoulder. If you have an office type chair, sit down on it, put your arms straight out to the sides, gently lean back on the chair, it's really good stretch to loosen up the erector muscles of the spine. Chances are they are tight causing your neck to not move right at the c5,6,7 level, that will shoot to arms, collarbone and even ribs. Make sure if it's not better tomorrow you see a doctor, oh being sunday you might have to wait to Monday unless you can find a Jewish doctor, they are open sundays.
