Detailed Answer:
Hi XXXXXXX
Thanks for writing in to us.
I have read through your query in detail.
Since your son has had a fall leading to pain in the neck region, it is best to consult a neurosurgeon. If the pain is not severe then its most likely due to a neck muscle spasm. However, the neurosurgeon will do complete clinical evaluation and give you the best opinion and if further imaging is necessary.
Please feel free to correct any oversight in my interpretation of your problems and discuss them in detail as per your requirements.
Hope your query is answered.
Do write back if you have any doubts.
