It has been hurting for 2 days now. The back of my neck is also sore and there is a little pain in my left shoulder. I may have slept wrong

I have the same pain, and mine is pinched nerve, and nerve damage in my neck as well as degenerative disc disease in my neck. But yours could be something else, like sleeping wrong, but either way, if the pain persists, I would advise you to go to the Dr. because it is better to find out from a Dr. And he will know better what is needed for your pain, and what the cause is.

Proper pillow support is important. Could be a muscle strain. The SCM muscle attaches to the collar bone from the neck. If it is a pinched nerve, it should ease if you lift the left arm above your head. If it does not ease up in a day or so you should have it checked out.

Could be related to a pinched nerve or even a pulled muscle. The only way to know for sure is to see your doctor for further evaluation of the situation to see what they think could be going on.
