Sounds like you may have a mildly pinched nerve. Possibly even anxiety.
When you have a neck injury, you can feel pain, tightening in the throat, stiff shoulders, foggy headed, tired, dazed, even high like because oxygen is either being rushed to the neck or pulled away. Ice helps. Take two tennis balls and put them in a sock, tie the sock so the balls are together and lay on the ground with the balls pushing your occipitals. This will release tension and help increase blood flow. If it is anxiety, focus on breathing, drink something hot or cold. Try taking a very cold shower.

Is it inside your throat or around your neck? If it feels like you can't sallow anything, I say blend something up and use a straw to eat for now and defiantly make a doctors appointment ASAP.

If it's an achey pain, Get some warm water on a tea towel and place it where you feel the most pain.

Kind of both. I feel it on the end of my neck and it's just weird. It's like forcing me to keep this position.

I don't have tennis balls, so I'm out of luck there. But my neck is forcing it to do this weird thing.

See how his neck is going up like that? It's forcing me to do that and if I bring it down, it hurts and I can't breathe/swallow.

Is it getting worse? Neck pain can be very serious. If it's daytime where you're at, you might want to see a doctor just to be safe. I had a slipped disc in my neck last year and it felt similar to what you're describing. Have you been playing sports recently? If you've been taking some bumps, your spine may be a little out of joint.

It feels the same as before. I haven't been doing any sports, but I have been working out. But I haven't really worked out like in 2 days and did shoulders on Monday. So kinda weird. I'll probably go to the doctors tomorrow.

Yes, It sounds insanely serious. If the doctors isn't available i say go to the ER.

@Laura
Did you require surgery?
No, just Percocet and a week of rest. Had to sleep sitting up for a while. For me, the pain started slow and got worse and worse until I was pretty much paralyzed. Kept ignoring it till I had to be driven to the hospital, lol. The disc was pinching a nerve. Hope you get better, back pain really sucks. :(

Just because it is felt on the front, doesn't mean you damaged the front. Could also be from a rotator cuff as you said you had been working out. Try doing light stretching for your rotator cuffs and see if that helps loosen it. I have been dealing with neck issues for years now and typically, if it is a neck issue, it is felt in the back. If you were doing things that was working out your chest, your chest muscle(s) can be strained which will tug on your collar bone and cause issues in your throat, jaw, ect.

I think it's just what Laura said. I don't feel any strain anywhere except except on my neck.
