Dh has asked me to put this on here as he is feeling aggrieved.
He pulled me to him in a sort of hug, and I said "mind my neck"- which is sore this morning as I slept on it badly.
He immediately replied "oh, no it isn't".
At which point I kneed him, but not hard.
Now he does this a lot- if I say I have a headache, he'll tell me I haven't.
How does he know how I'm feeling?

An overreaction OP, but he might finally stop telling you that things don´t hurt when you know that they do!

Romance, dead, who says?!

So did you say 'mind my neck, its sore' when he was grabbing you for a hug and he said 'no it isnt' still grabbing you (and I presume hurting your sore neck)?
If so, then absolutely fine to knee him to get him off you when he was hurting you and not listening to you saying stop!
If he wasnt hurting you at all or even hugging you anymore when you kneed him then thats a bit weird tbh

I'd have done the same. Tell him to cook his own dinner. FFS.

YABU to have kneed him the gonads

However, he is unreasonable to say what he did. One of things I learnt when I did my nanny training was that you never pour scorn on a child saying "it hurts" by saying "don't be silly" or "no it doesn't". How do we know that it doesn't, and if they think it hurts, then we acknowledge that.

So if he cannot guarantee it doesn't hurt he should shut the f*ck up!!!! And give you a hug instead!!
