A member asked:

Severe muscle tension w/ large, popping knots. pain still lasts hours after self-massagehurts in neck, back, and through both elbows. what can i do?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Muscle spasms: Muscle spasms in neck/back/upper arms may be from anxiety or stress which may be relieved by regular massage therapy, meditation, exercise, taking time for yourself doing something you love, counseling, time with friends, hot water baths, OTC pain relievers, or if all else fails, prescription medications to help relieve the stress and help you feel good again. Good luck!
