Pulled muscle: Try using warm and cold compresses. Warm is either a heating pad or a wash cloth in the microwave until it gets Hot. Check the cloth on the back of the hand before you place this on the neck. Place this on the neck for 15 to 20 mins. Refresh when cold. Cold compresses: washcloth in a ice bath of water. Apply to neck and refresh when needed. Use Tylenol as well. Do the Compresses every hou
