treatment for neckpain?

[EDGE]

arghhh...it hurts! I got up this morning to get ready for school (last day! yay!). Got outa the shower and popped my neck. After the 3rd pop, I here a *SNAP, CRACKLE, POP* (a little exaggerated ) and my neck has hurt ever since. My mom and dad keep telling me I slept on it wrong. I don't think so. So, anyone got a treatment for neckpain? I took some motrin this morning. Nope, didn't help.

i had my bad neck for about a week?, but it dosent HURT! as much as it sounds like yours does, wait, this is supposed to make you get rid of it, not how long your having it .
just rest it, not on the comp, maybe have a pillow behind your head, if you have a tall back to the chair

Go see the chiropractor if you can. My neck can feel soooo bad sometimes, and as soon as he does his thing, it feels o so great. The problem with a lot of people is, their vertebrae come out of alignment. It isn't an alarming pain, but it's bad enough to be pain. Chiropractor can fix all that

lay face down have a hot towel on you back side of your neck lay there for a hour or so, be nice have your mother/person rub something on it too, as will massaging it really good till you don't feel it no more.

put your chin on a pillow face forward or down, lay there and relax some. you hit a nerve is all you did when you crack your neck.

rub you neck back side will relax it and it may go back in place and the nerve may relax too. less pain

[EDGE]

heh, felt good when it was numb.

[Scott]

you coulda slept on it wrong and when you cracked it you pinched a nerve that was already tender.. that happens to me sometimes.. you don't notice it really when you wake up but when you hit that nerve

Prolly be better in a day or 2.. not much you can do if that's the case.

Thanks all I'll try to rest it. But ya know, today was the last day of school for the summer. Don't know how much rest it will get lol.

[Hellfighter]

hope you feel like a new man soon.

Ps empty out your PM box ok its full.

[BADDOG]

Can you get hold of any "Deep Heat" spray? That's supposed to be good for stuff like this bro!!!!

Regards and I hope your better soon!!!!

[Lakie]

the deep heat cream works better, but only works IMO if its muscle pain...

ICEYHOT? I hear it is good. Dunno if it works for neck pain though.

...no, icyhot cools to numb it, then burns lol. I've had to use it in baseball before. It doesn't feel too good when your sweating and sliding into bases. :s Besides, Icyhot is more for muscle strains and sprains.
