Likely you have a muscle spasm, usually due to unexpected move. Start with local spray and hot water bottle. You can take OTC meds Paracetamol and Ibuprofen. Move as much as possible, I know its painful!!! you still have to
Next Steps
Physician if you are no better in 48 hrs
Health Tips
Must seek advice if you develop pins and needles sensation in your arms.

Hello There. I can understand your concern. its neither a nerve nor a vein. its a muscle pull/spasm. as of now, you can take a muscle relaxant pain killer like tab. zerodol-th8 once or twice a day after food as per your pain severity. in 3 day, it will subside. after that, you need to do neck muscle strengthening exercises daily. Best regards Dr. Anil kumar jain.
