A member asked:
I have been waking up with a sore neck or more back of my head on my left side for the past 5 days. the feeling then subsides as the day progresses,and i feel it again the next morning when waking. is it just my pillow that's the cause?

Probably not : It probably has to do with posture during the day, repetitive movements, etc. Of course not using the right pillow may not help, but it is likely that some of the activities during the day are causing neck strain as well. Talk to your doc about your symptoms and monitor your activities during the day.
