A member asked:
What is a good way to deal with sudden neck stiffness due to sleeping funkily?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Things to try: Gentle stretching or a massage. If you are able, then try simple analgesic. With acute muscle injuries sometimes a cold pack will help but if persistent, gentle heat.
