60% are better by : 6 months but 40% take longer with further evaluation indicated if pain persists for 6-12 weeks after injury or associated with any pain into arms or neurologic symptoms . See your physician if it does not improve for recommendations, for now, OTC meds and warm compresses or hot showers can help.

Suggest: See a physiatrist, maybe X-ray neck, and perhaps a course of physical therapy will stabilize all of this.
