Hi..

The reason is neural irritation from your neck..
this could happen due to various reasons.. overuse..postural issue of neck...facet joint irritation...etc...
I would suggest you to initially ice up your neck frequently...15 mins possibly once in every 2 hours..
keep your neck supported properly...while sleeping.
Keep your neck supported with a cervical collar-- soft collar...
Condition will improve..
once the pain and tingling sensation comes down then I should start with neck rehabilitation exercises like.. Neck retraction .. shoulder shrugs...
resisted neck extension...like keep your hands clasped behind the neck..press your hand towards head and head should be pressed against the hands..the position is maintained for 30 secs..same can be done sideways while hands kept head above your ear...

Hope this is helpful..
Please revert back in case you need any clarification
