Muscle strain/spasm: The strong muscles in the back and neck can spasm or get inflamed from trauma and cause a sensation of pain that may last for some time. The pain could be a result of nerve pinching as well. Depending on other symptoms and duration it may warrant an evaluation if not resolving with simple measures of time and anti inflammatories. Hope this helps!
