Hello Doctor,
My neck is hurting super bad, it’s super stiff and I cannot move it at all.
Hello,
Thank you for reaching out to Dr. Galen. Please find the below response to your query.
I understand how distressing neck pain can be, and I'm here to provide some guidance.
Based on your description, it sounds like your neck muscles are very tense, making it difficult for you to move comfortably. There could be several factors contributing to this. It's possible that the pain is related to a medication you are taking, or it could be due to age-related changes in your muscles. Additionally, episodes of muscle spasms can also cause significant discomfort.
To help alleviate your symptoms, I recommend a few steps. Firstly, applying hot water bags to the affected area can help to relax the muscles and reduce stiffness. Additionally, a muscle relaxant prescribed by a physician may provide further relief by easing the tension in your neck muscles. Finally, incorporating gentle neck exercises into your daily routine can help to improve blood flow to the area and promote healing.
It's important to remember that everyone's situation is unique, so I would encourage you to consult with a healthcare professional for personalized advice and treatment recommendations. They can assess your specific condition and provide tailored guidance to help you find relief.
Thanks
