Neck pain: It sounds like you may have torticolis. Some people call this a "crick" in your neck. It is probably from the position you slept in. Ibuprofen, heat to your neck, and supporting your neck better when you sleep may be all that you need to do. If this doesn't help or if it gets worse, I recommend you see a doctor.
