 It sounds like your sleeping position created a muscle spasm. The upper trapezius muscle crosses from the neck over to the shoulder and is often the culpret with this type of pain. There is also the possibility of a facet syndrome. This is a problem with a facet joint in the neck which can cause a significant amount of neck pain, stiffness, and muscle spasm. A well-trained chiropractor could do an examination and provide a nessesary treatment or referal as appropriate. Dr. Haitz
