Dr. Mark Galland answered

Specializes in Orthopedic Surgery

Good start: Seeing your gp would be a good place to start, but they may refer you to an ortho or neuro. Home treatment can start with rest and ice, but make sure to see a physician if pain persist. Neck pain is better addressed early, instead of later.
