Pulled a muscle in my neck?!
Question: Pulled a muscle in my neck.?
I woke up this morning and my neck and shoulders area hurts ALOT, like I slept on it funny last night. I just took some advil, but it's not working yet. Any advice on what else I can do to make it feel better.?Health Question & Answer
Answers:
You have started out right taking the Advil... You can put ice packs on it for the first 24 hours. That brings down the swelling. After 24 hours, heat will loosen it up. The Icy hot patches are great for this! once you are heating it, try some nice slow neck rolls. Just give it a little stretch until the pain stops and then go just a little further... Keep it up. SLOW, not fast and jerky... Good luck!!Health Question & Answer
Motrin, advil, or aleve would be good. if you are at home use a heating pad on low and if you have someone around have them message it for you.. thats really all you can do.... hope you feel better... it should be a lot better by tomorrow.Health Question & Answer
