A few things you could try, as it may resolve by itself:
"Deep heat" cream or spray is the best thing I know for muscular pains, you should be able to it buy from a pharmacy (I'm in the UK but I'm guessing they'd have something similar in the US or wherever you are.)
The chinese "Tiger balm" lotion also works. And a warm bath may also help.
Ibuprofen is a painkiller which you can buy without prescription (in the UK anyway) and helps inflamation.
Also try very very gentle stretches, slowly rocking your neck from side to side, and rotating your shoulder. Someone else may know better on this, but I think there's a danger that if you don't move it at all it will seize up more.
hope it gets better soon
