Neck pain can be really bothersome, but you can try a few things at home to get some relief quickly.

  • Apply heat or cold: For the first 2-3 days, use an ice pack, then switch to heat. You can also use a warm compress or take a warm shower.
  • Gentle stretches: Slowly tilt your head from side to side, forward and backwards, avoiding any jerky movements.
  • Over-the-counter pain relievers: Medications like ibuprofen or acetaminophen can help reduce pain and inflammation. However, do not take any medication without doctor's advice.
  • Good posture: Be mindful of your posture, especially when sitting at a desk or using electronic devices. Make sure your screen is at eye level.

If your neck pain is severe, doesn't improve after a week, or is accompanied by other symptoms like numbness, weakness, or headache, you should consult a doctor. HexaHealth can help you find a specialist and book a consultation.

Wishing you a speedy recovery!
