A member asked:
What to do if i have got torticollis, or a wry/stiff neck - will antinflamitories help ease the pain?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Possibly : This should respond more to muscle relaxants, but if the stiffness is due to arthritis of the spine it should respond well to anti-inflammatory medications.
