General Surgeon 's  Response
Hi,

* The neck pain on movements sound to be ligament or muscle related rather than a side-effect of Febuxostat.
* I suggest ice application, analgesic and assisted physiotherapy to control the situation nicely.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
