Not sure: Neck pain makes doctors nervous- we worry about meningitis. Go back to your doctor asap.

Allergic reaction: Your description sounds like an allergic reaction. With time symptoms should resolve. Taking some Benadryl (diphenhydramine) may help some but it will take a few days to resolve. If you develop trouble breathing or symptoms worsen/ do not resolve, you need to see your doctor.
