If i was laying on a high pillow with my neck tilted forward and the nape of my skull tilted forward a little would that do anything? kind of hurts in area? like if i was laying directly on the top of the base of skull?

You might have inadvertently sprained your neck. Use a pillow which is comfortable and in a few days your strain should go away. Good luck
