Cervical strain: Sounds like you may have cervical muscle strain and disc inflammation . Try warm compress to improve circulation, use cold compress if any more acute pain develops. Try gentle neck stretching exercises. Over the counter Aleve, Tylenol (acetaminophen) or ibuprofen may benefit you. You may Also want to try vitamin D3 and glucosamine. See your medical provider if the the Robles continues or gets worse
