Hi,

Based on the history you have shared, it can be due to pulled muscle but X-ray cervical spine may be done to rule out any skeletal cause. Meanwhile OTC analgesics like acetaminophen or Ibuprofen can be helpful for symptomatic relief. Muscle relaxants like tizanidine or orphenidine can also be used. If pain is severe more potent analgesic like tramadol or gabapentin may be helpful. Dry heat application with warm compresses can relief.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further. Wishing you a speedy recovery.

Regards,
