awoke this morning with neck pain on left rear side of head. took 1000 mg of acetaminophen at work. pain did not go away. lunchtime I went to gym and stretched back ,shoulder, and neck and had a hydro massage for 10 minutes concentration on upper back and neck. Pain has not subsided, may have increase .
Hi, It may be due to sprained back muscles or tendon injury. As a first line of management you can take analgesics/muscle relaxant combination like Acetaminophen/Baclofen combination for pain relief. Generally the symptoms will settle in a couple of days. Apply ice packs and take adequate bed rest. If symptoms persist, you can consult an Orthopaedician and get evaluated. Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
