Well if you're not stretching your neck before and after the exercise, then that's a good place to start.

point your chin down slightly & look forward, keep your neck still, hold the dumbells slightly in front of you, squeeze your traps, hold for a count and slowly descend. DO NOT rotate your shoulders, DO NOT jerk the weight, maintain with steady & controlled movements.

if you pinch a nerve use something with capsicum, maye "salonpas" heating pads.
