How To Alleviate Pain And Stiffness In The Neck?

I have a tooth that has lost a filling that was done when I was a kid in high school, freshman if I recall. I have pain from it when I eat. I bought a water flosser which is a god send. lately, like a week or so I have a stiff and sore neck and back of my head. Aleve and Ibuprophin are no longer able to relieve the pain and stiffness. I have no insurance at this time so I am reluctant to seek a dentist. I would like some thoughts as to what I should do.
