Brief Answer:
It can be a sprain or contusion.

Detailed Answer:
Hi,
It can be a minor sprain or contusion.
Nothing much to worry and it will settle in couple of days.
As of now you can try over the counter available analgesics/anti inflammatory combination like aceclofenac/seratiopeptdase for symptomatic relief.

Brief Answer:
Is it a severe pain?

Detailed Answer:
Hi,
Is it a mild pain or severe pain? Is there any restriction of neck movements?
Mild pain does not cause much problems and will settle with conservative measures like warm compression and analgesics.
If pain persists you may require an X-ray and a collar.
