i have taken advil and rubbed my head and slowly tried working my knot out
but nothing has worked
does anybody have any ideas on how to relieve the pain??
Keep with anti inflammatories, Ibuprofen, can take up to 600mg 3 x day. if you have any muscle relaxants, one or two will do for the day. try moist heat, wet towel, put in microwave for less than a minute, apply to neck and put towel over it to keep heat in. sometimes, ice helps, epsom salts in bathtub or on towel helps too. a nice massage, but this doesn't truly get rid of pain. try also, tilt chin to chest, hold for 10-15 sec, then ear to R shoulder and , back and L shoulder. this helps stretch. there are some good docs that know how to "snap" the neck muscle to break the spasm, but, won't be any help on line. Hope you feel better. I had it a few wks ago, too. icy hot/.bengay and sports creams help somewhat. don't get burned from menthol or hot micro towel..
Then chant "Umbongo tum te tum the congo" 12 times
Then spin around in circles for about 2 mins.
and according to the old Alaskian noble, your neck will be cured.
If it doesn't go away in a few days, and you experience a fever, go to the doctor immediately.
