Greetings,   sorry about fall/numbers. Not to worry,  no need to visit an emergency room.  You go a muscle spasm,  that is it.
Next Steps
you need to get to see a physiotherapist who specialise in myofascial release/trigger points therapy.
Health Tips
give ice to shoulders and neck,  if any concerns do let me know
