Probably muscular: Frequently people will have pain at the base of the neck and this can be a cause of a headache. I would try some over the counter remedy to help this and maybe some heat. If there persists then I would see your doctor. If you have been straining or doing exercise or stress - all of these can be the source of your "pain in the neck" Best wishes.
