Honestly babe, it sounds like you have a "kink" in your neck.
This is a fairly common problem- and a rather annoying and painful one.
It usually comes from sleeping in an awkward position, staying in the same position for too long without proper excercise (yes, you need to move your neck around- properly- also...) and stress on the neck area.
Massage the area several times a day, be patient, and wait it out. The only fix for such a problem is time.
If, however, symptoms do not improve after two weeks, give your MD a call. He or she, who knows more about your medical history, will be able to shed a bit more light on the situation.
And in the future, when playing video games, surfing the web, watching T.V., or taking notes in school, take a moment to gently move your head back and forth.
Take 2 Aleve, or the generic version of it. I think it is called naproxin sodium or sodium naproxin. But follow the directions closely. You take 2 the first time, then one the next time I think. In a day or two or maybe three it will feel better. This is definitely the best medicine for muscle pain. you will be better in no time.
