A member asked:
I suffer from chronic headaches. when i wear a soft neck collar they go away. when i take it off they come back. why could this happen?

A 'device' collar?: If the collar is a prescribed or recommended support, you might need it to bear the weight of you head. W/o this, it might put too much pressure on muscles and other structures that are not in good condition for some reason. See the doctor who is treating it, or one who will.
