What can cause a hot feeling on the back of my neck? it is warm to touch but not red. has been there for two days.

Some thoughts: cannot say in your particular case, but generally, infection and / or inflammation would be causes of warmth. THis can be due to a skin infection, collar rubbing, reaction to something on neck (detergent, jewelry). It can also be a reaction by the local nerves but this is not at all common.
