Just that: Very common to develop neck or back pain. If it persist see your orthopaedic specialist and get into a pt program and some Motrin advil (ibuprofen) etc.

See below: Neck pain usually comes from a degenerative joint or disc in the neck. Sometimes it's from a muscle strain or sprain. Early treatment options include a short course of nsaids (advil, aleve), gentle massage, moist heat, and focusing on posture. If pain lasts greater than 2 weeks see your physician.
