There are several purposes for using a neck brace. A neck brace helps stabilize and imobilize someone from being able to move their neck. It helps protect a person from further injuring their neck.

When swimming is it necessary to wear your neck brace if you broke your neck 2 weeks before?

Yes it is. The brace is there to immobilize your neck until it heals. If the the brace is not compatible with swimming, you might consider not swimming until you've healed completely. This would be a good thing to talk to your doctor about, as I would guess you've been asked to reduce excercise until your cervical spine heals.
