kambrielle,
Welcome to NeuroTalk. You had quite a fall. Please don't try to minimize it. You neck can be injured as your back and other parts of your body. The whiplash like forces as you hit the ground can cause a lot of trauma to the whole spine.
Neck spasms are quite common. Plus, muscles spasms/tender spots behind the ears are common. These are usually related to trauma from the base of the skull (occiput) and down. The C-1 (atlas ) to occiput joint is easily injured and will not manifest like a pinched or stuck neck like the lower joints tend to. Chiropractors can help but one needs to be careful to get gentle treatments to the neck. The twist the head and pop the neck is usually too aggressive.
You should be very careful about driving. Your tiredness can be a big problem when behind the wheel.
Feel free to tell us anything you need help with. We have seen and heard it all. Try to get quiet rest so your brain can try to heal.
My best to you.
