The back of my neck is so sore and painful I can hardly turn it. I do not have any other symptoms - I have not slept on it wrong. This pain has been getting worse for the past month or so. The pain starts at the base of my skull and runs down the neck especially the left side
hither could be cervical spondylitis developing. Do hot turkey towel fomentation, take muscle relaxant tablets like chloraxozone and alive after meals. Apply muscle relaxant gel like relay, do not use pillow and use cervical collar in daytime for few days till spasm is over, then by start isometric cervical exercises under a trained physical therapist. If it doesn't help, get MRI/X-ray of neck spine and visit orthopedic doctor thanks
