I just looked at orthoinfo.com and it sounds pretty miserable! This is what they suggested you do: "All sprains or strains, no matter where they are located in the body, receive basically the same type of treatment. Usually, neck sprains, like other sprains, will gradually heal, given time and appropriate treatment. You may have to wear a soft cervical collar to help support the head and relieve pressure on the neck so the ligaments have time to heal.
Analgesics, such as aspirin or ibuprofen, can help reduce the pain and any swelling. Muscle relaxants can help ease spasms. You can apply an ice pack for 15 to 30 minutes at a time, several times a day for the first two or three days after the injury. This will help reduce inflammation and discomfort. Although heat, particularly moist heat, can help loosen cramped muscles, it should not be applied too quickly."
Good luck and hopefully you will heasl quickly!

Sometimes it is just the way you sleep. There are pillows that you can buy to keep your neck in the correct curve. It is rough at first but in the logn wrong it will help you and and help take away the pain.
