Hi!
You need to first sit upright in a chair with a good posture. Keep your hands on the arm rest of the chair .
Try bending your neck side to side.
Now try looking up to the ceiling and down
Now rotate your neck.
Note down which movements are exactly painful.
Observe if you have any tingling sensation to your arm while moving your neck.
Depending on your work profile, it could be just prolong postural issue that has triggered it .
You can get back to me with your answers. And we can suggest some easy stretches and exercises that will relieve your root cause of the pain .

Since when you are having this problem.
Are you working on laptop, or got any injury or pain started in sleeping.
Need proper history for proper diagnosis and treatment. But for now you can apply ice pack three times a day 15 min-20min everyday.
Also start doing exercises for neck like neck isometric exercises.
Apply volini gel or diclofenac gel if it hurts more.
Try to take proper rest.
Use only one pillow while sleeping.
Avoid lifting heavy weight.
Take a break inbetween while working and do stretching.
