Puffy neck and shoulders after 2 excedrin and 1 25mg sumatriptan. should i be concerned?

It depends: It depends whether your symptoms are improving or worsening. One type of reaction which can exhibit the features you described is angioedema. It is considered a type of allergy that can be triggered by certain drugs such as NSAID's and others. Stop taking these medications and contact your primary care physician.
