Thanks for posting your query.
From the details that you have shared it seems that there is some compression of nerve in neck region. When ever a nerve is compressed it can give rise to such kind of problem.
The reason for nerve compression could be:
Bad posture
Some minor injury
Over work or stress on that part
Please do following which should help:
Take analgesic for pain that you are comfortable with
Avoid lifting heavy weight
Avoid taking big pillow or more then one medium sized pillow
Apply local analgesic cream.
Please visit a doctor for further examination and treatment.
I hope this helps,
Wishing you good health.

MD Hey there, I was just bathing my 4month daughter and as I was getting he out I slipped on the wet floor, causing her to go under for a moment and also unfortunately causing her to bump her head on the bath also. She has a red bump on her head, and is a little lethargic (although she is due to go to sleep as well) Should I keep her awake? or can she go to sleep while I monitor her closely? I have also given her panadol to help with the pain she may be feeling after the bump.
