No: You cannot be seriously injured by "rubbing" your neck. It would however be very dangerous to do anything that might restrict circulation to your brain such as the "choking game". If your friend has done more than rub you, in such a way as to hurt you, you should inform a parent or other authority figure to get help.

No: I am not sure what you meant by something moved out of place. Do you have pain in your neck? If you have any pain from his massage then you should go to see a doctor soon.
