You can put a warm not hot towel on it. But move it as much as you can so it can heal faster

Do you have a family member or a friend who could massage your neck ? Massage greatly reduces stiffness and pain in the neck and shoulders.

Slowly move your head to the left and look over your shoulder, bring your head to the front and repeat the other side. You must do it slowly so as not to jarr your neck. Easy to do when you're stuck in traffic or just watching tele...Or sittingat the computer.
