A stiff neck can be a symptom of spinal meningitis. A very high fever along with a stiff neck needs to be checked out immediately.

This could be caused by a herniated disk in your back. I had two herniated disks, C5 and C6, which caused a tremendous amount of stiffness in my neck and a burning sensation. I ended up having to have surgery and my disks were replaced with metal plates. An MRI needs to be done to see if disks are herniated.
