Neck pain: Likely you injured small muscles used in postural control ,try a soft foam neck collar for support ,prescription muscle relaxing drugs may also help ,if severe see a physician

Not uncommon: Similar to a car accident - you may feel worse several days after the accident. Did you lose consciousness? If so, then see your doctor for exam. Other concerning signs would be fuzzy thinking, headaches, dizziness, nausea, numbness / tingling in the hands or arms. If it is just stiffness and pain then I would see a chiropractor to help speed up the healing process.
