Cold.
Then go to a chiropractor.

In sports, athletes are generally treated for this and many other types of soft tissue injuries with alternative heat and cold, plus message, TENS unit (electrical stimulation), and whirlpool treatment as well -- in other words, different modes of treatment. If your neck is really uncomfortable, ibuprofen (400 or 600 mgs) can really help.
