Many conditions may cause neck stiffness, including infections. Please see your PCP, monitor your temperature and discuss physical therapy. If you have headaches or dizziness, proceed to the Emergency room.

Depending on whether you have a fever or other symptoms you need to be ruled out for meningitis. It is more probably you have a musculoskeletal problem in your neck and should see an orthopedic doctor or neurologic doctor for treatment.
