Hi Ive been actually having neck problems for years but it comes & goes so I saw an doctor he said it seemed as I was having muscle spasms so he prescribed a relaxant & ibuprofen for pain. Well the relaxant kicks most of the pain but my upper spine hurts right behind the head. Its a throbbing pain at night even down to my shoulders.  Can you help please this is hard to live with
Hi, Thank you for posting your query. Taking painkillers such as ibuprofen and muscle relaxants are a temporary solution. Permanent relief would depend on accurate diagnosis and correct treatment. This would require getting an MRI of cervical spine done. Please get back with the report. Please get back if you require any additional information. Best wishes, Chat Doctor. Ly/
