sorry babe all i can suggest is ibuprofen (but not if you're pregnant) and a good soak in the bath

hope its better soon

Sounds like you may have a trapped nerve, but im no doctor hun, if its not better my tomorrow you should probably get it checked out but in the meantime try and rest and take some ibuprofen if you can. Hope it gets better soon xx

Paracetamol is ok if preggers so take some of that and sit with a hotwater bottle round it if you can.

You could also send OH out to get some deep heat cream from the chemist or supermarket and rub that into it

hope you feel better soon

Lots of rest. Maybe you've pulled a muscle?

Awww, poor you!!! Neck pain really sucks!! The magic pill concoction for any excruciating pain is 2 paracetamols with codeine and 2 iboprofen...hospital recommended it to me when I was ill with gall bladder pain and to hubby when he had pleurisy (sp?) (Apparently fine to take all together becuase of different ingredients)

Obviously not a long term recommendation...might be tricky too if you want to keep pills to minumum with test date nearly due.

try and relax with heat pad/water bottle and take it easy...DON'T go back to work on Monday if it is still bad!!! that is an order!!!!

Hope you feel better soon

Hell yeah! Can leave you feeling slightly spaced out though so dont take this concoction if you need to drive anywhere etc, I usually do this for period cramps and it knocks me out lol

Those wheat bags you put in the microwave work really well. I used one when i had whiplash after a car crash a couple of years ago

Hope it eases soon

It could be Torticollis I suffer from it now and again.

Hopefully you should be feeling a lot better but if it happens again you should go the doctors because they can give you stronger anti-inflamatries and painkillers if you need them. I've been to A&E because the pain was so bad. If its bearable get some heat rub and get someone to massage your neck, it loosens up the mussles and helps stop the spasams.

Hope your feeling better,

Grace

Meant to say the worse bit only lasts a few days and you should be back to normal between 7-10 days.
