I have muscular pain in the cervical area, i try with a lot of painkillers and i still can not move my head. i need a piece of advise?

Stop the meds: Taking more tha 24 pain pills weekly can make you worse. Stop the meds. Pains typically worsen for a week then improve off meds. Take magnesium oxide 250 mg at bed also.
