Hi,
It seems that there might behaving formation of hematoma producing lump on the part.
If there is CNS signs like nausea, vomiting, convulsion or unconsciousness, go to Er immediately.
There might be having some strain and spasm of neck muscles leading to tilting of neck due to painful movement on that side.
Consult your doctor and get examined.
Meanwhile apply ice-pack on the part.
Ok and take care.
