The could be arising from wear and tear of the neck vertebrae or incorrect posture or from weaker muscles. You need to see a Spinal Surgeon for assessment and investigations as appropriate.
If there are no concerning features then physiotherapy, painkillers and hot fomentation will help.
Hope this helps.
