Usually muscular pain caused by cold is a painful reflex  contraction of the 
muscle being painful (one of the ideas God should be sued for ;-)
As said Stephen : ibuprophene, paracetamol or better, a muscle relaxant you 
could get prescribed by your doctor.
The 1st cure is to  get your neck warm (a lamp aimed at the painful zone or 
a long hot shower) and rest.
Consider purchasing a good orthopaedic pillow, I had frequent neck problems 
before I got one.
