 Dear ama_nan,
Neck pain has many causes.
The most common is most probably muscle strains from wrong positions taken by patient during their work or during their sleep.
A very common cause also, is arthritis of the neck but i think that you are still for that. Other causes might be secondary to inflammation or infection. Referred pain is also another cause.
For the time being, i would recommend following the pain and if it gets worse, i recommend that you contact your doctor to be have a physical exam.
Thank you very much for using our website http://doctorslounge.com and i hope that this information helped.
Yasser Mokhtar, M.D
