Have : Have you had a previous neck injury? If so you may be dealing with arthritis pain, which is typically exacerbated by cold weather. Although this is probably the cause there are other things that need to be ruled out such as neck strain, or even disc disease. You should schedule an appointment with your primary care doctor, and in the meantime try Ibuprofen or advil (ibuprofen) if not contraindicated.

Better get seen: Meanwhile, warm compresses, avoid exposure to cold air drafts, rest your neck in the most comfortable position, NSAIDS unless contraindicated, best wishes
