It is a recurring problem. Initially pain killer and muscle relaxants followed by neck rehab will help in a longer duration. Please feel free to consult

You need analgesics like Diclofenac sodium if there are no contraindications plus muscle relaxant for a few days .You can apply a hot water bag over the stiff muscles 2 or 3 times a day.Use proper sized pillow
Avoid exposure to air-conditioning .In case of sign worsening stiffness physiotherapy will help .
