Pain in right side of neck and back

Question

Asked for Female, 20 Years

Few weeks ago while watching a movie I came across a headache. I realised that I was resting my back in an awkward postion on a teddy bear. The headache was gone the next morning but there was a strange pull in the right side of my neck which gradually resulted in pain in the upper back, sometimes travelling to the left side and resulting a pull even in my collar bone joints. It's been more than two weeks but the pain won't go. Whenever I turn my head on the right I feel a strange pull . Help!
