Neck hurts from the back of my head down and on both sides and it feels tight i lift alot of heavy stuff at work. what can i do?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Neck pain: Would consider PT, massage, liftign techniques, Aleve (naproxen) if not allergic and or flexeril at night. Warm shower in AM, ice when home from work If lifting constantly consider breaks every 30 minutes for 1-2 minutes to shake out neck . may consider a few days of neck collar, sometimes at night it helps the neck from rolling all over f/u with doc /urgent care ..
