Prolonged Neck Pain

I have been suffering from neck pain for the past three weeks. Originally it started out down the middle of my neck--the spine area and when massaged, my neck would click and you could feel the bone moving.
It's onset was upon waking one morning, but it was a totally different feeling than when sleeping wrong...

I now have neck stiffness on the whole left side and the pain started radiating down my left shoulder days ago, then down my arm and eventually a numbness/tingling in my left hand.

Pain killers do not seem to help, nor does the massages or hot compresses...

Any suggestions as to what could cause this (I'm only 28 btw) and how to rid the pain?
