I have had that problem often. I use a product called Bio Freeze. You can go to any drug store and by this or similar. It is kind of like Icy Hot but 100 times better. Ask someone at the drug store for this product and if they do not carry this brand tell them you need a medication that freezes your muscles. After market brands work almost as well. Now you need a good muscle relaxant. You can buy this also at any drug store in the herbal area. It is called Valeiran root. It is similar to Xanax and also used as a tranquilizer. This is Herbal. You should also take something for pain. Ibuprofen works best with this issue. Take (2) 200 mg tablets every 4-6 hours as needed for pain. I am not a DR. I am only giving advice that I would give myself. The advice that I have taken from myself to myself and has worked the best and has worked wonders. Good Luck

Your muscles kinda work like velcro and you stretched them out and they sprung back into a knot. Apply ice and heat at 30 minute intervals and have someone massage the area carefully. I f you have a muscle relaxer take it. or drink some wine. You need to relax those muscles.

I had the same thing happen to me years ago. Go to the doctor, if you can't get in today; try to sleep. Mine just took time to get over it. Sorry... :-(

You probably slept on it wrong, it'll go away eventually. If it doesn't go away soon, you should go to therapy

The best thing to do is take a nap. Prop your head up on a large comfortable pillow and go to sleep. Hopefully when you wake up your neck should feel better.

takes a whole day or two to go away massage it often and slowly force your head to turn in all directions.

The best thing i've found for stiff body parts are Nikken products. They make health and wellness products. The magnetic therapy products really do work.
