Neck pain: Hi, please see a doctor for evaluation to find out why you have neck pain, a neck brace is not always a good idea because immobilization of neck can cause stiffness of the neck and you can lose the functionality of the neck muscle.

See below: Sharp neck pain usually comes from a degenerative joint or disc in the neck. Sometimes it's from a muscle strain or sprain. Early treatment options include a short course of nsaids (advil, aleve), gentle massage, moist heat, and focusing on posture. I would stay away from the brace for now. If pain lasts greater than 2 weeks see your physician.
