Answers:
I think your trapezius muscle is strained and probably hurt more by the fall!.
Check this video about trapezius stretch!. Maintain the stretched positions for 30 seconds!. As you stretch, ask someone to make gentle stokes with an ice bag along your back and neck muscles!.

Try to ice 15 min every hour until the pain and muscle inflammation is gone!. You shouldn't do gymnastics until then!.
Take care
EDIT
I'm not giving you any prescriptions or a diagnosis, I'm only trying to help by giving my opinion from what you describe and recommending a stretching exercise video that I found on the web!. I think the answerer below me should sue that website and maybe throw their accusations at others who are prescribing drugs on YA!. Again, I'm only trying to help!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

Your back is too important to accept answers from YA!.
Doubtful your mother does not have the time or interest in you, she may have an insurance policy for you as coverage is available for most students!.
The minimal thing you should do is see the school nurse and by all means talk with your coach!.
Further practice attempts can make your condition worse just as ignoring it can!.
This may be something simple or major and needs a professional assessment!.
P T students should not diagnosis or prescribe!. it is against the law and can lead to malpracitce suites!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
