Neck Jerk while playing tennis

Question

Asked for Female, 21 Years

I was playing tennis and after I did a jump I had a pain in the back of my neck, on the left side only. It felt as if some vein or artery had twisted or moved. I had a headache. However, I kept playing and it went away within 3 minutes or so. Again when I did a jerky movement in the next ball, the same thing happened. The pain came all of a sudden and subsided on its own within 1-2 minutes
