Hello,
Your symptoms seem to be related to a viral infection. The neck pain sees to be related to the muscular issue. I suggest using anti-inflammatory medications such as Ibuprofen to relieve the symptoms.
I also suggest using warm compresses at the neck area. I recommend drinking liquids and rest.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Take care
