Hi, I think I pulled my muscle during a rollercoaster 11 days ago. I have this neck and shoulder pain since. On the first few days, I really have problem turning my head, and difficult to lay down to sleep. It has gotten better, I can sleep with no discomfort but I still feel pain in neck in the morning when getting out of bed. Other times of the day, it is stiff when I try to tilt it further front and back, but not much when turning side to side. Should I see a doctor or give it more days to recover?
Hi, It seems it is due to muscle spasm, please take over the counter painkillers, apply diclofenac gel, give hot fomentation, if not relieved in 3 days consult the nearest hospital. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
