Neck Pain Posted: 11-03-03 01:36am
I'm a 23 yrld male and for the past month
i've been having neck stiffness its gotten
worse and I dont have a clue whats causing
it.I get a grating sensation in my neck
when I move side to side and I have
stiffnes where my shooulders meet my neck.
I havent had any accidents and I dont
have a stressfull job.But the stiffness
just wont go away.It gets worse as the day
progresses.I domnt have insurance or money
to go see the doctor .Im worried it might
be something serious. Anybody have a clue
what the problem might be.

Neck Exercises Posted: 01-06-05 05:47am
Stay as active as possible. Try to go to
work and keep up your normal everyday
activities - bed rest is not necessary.
If you are given a neck-collar, try not to
use this for more than one or two
days.Remember that neck pain is rarely
caused by a serious illness and will often
disappear within a week.
People with weak neck muscles are more
prone to neck problems and in such cases,
an exercise programme to strengthen the
neck is a good idea. These are the few

Hi there!
How is your neck now?
I had the exact trouble as you (stiff neck
that wouldnt get better) and it ended up
being serious.
I had ruptured cervical (neck) disc. I
didnt know it at the exact time either.
Simply woke up with a stiff neck.
If you have questions, I will try to
answer & help, though I am not healed.
Sincerely, patty
