At home alternate hot and cold packs every 4 hrs will help reduce pain, improve circulation when applied to the affected area. Make sure you keep the heat/cold pack for at-least 15-20 mins.
May want to get an xray done for your neck region. Meet with your family doctor. You may get a anti inflammatory meds prescribed.
If there is no change in pain, your doctor may advise a MRI
