Brief Answer:
Could be due to fever / abnormal posture

Detailed Answer:
Hi I am Dr Gopal Goel , Orthopedic Surgeon
You had sudden neck pain on one side and now your feeling warm.
In my opinion you pain is due to neck spasm and the cause of spasm could be a bad posture or impending fever.
I suggest you start paracetamol, and muscle relaxants for neck pain.
If fever starts then consult a physician.
I hope I have answered your question . Pl feel free to ask any further question
