I've been dealing with neck pain for about two months now. Sometimes it gets better, but after a few days, it comes back. At first, I thought it was just because of bad sleeping habits, but its been lasting longer than I expected. Could this be something more serious?
For relief, you can try taking acetaminophen (Tylenol) 500mg every 6 hours as needed for pain. Additionally, you can apply a topical pain relief cream like diclofenac gel to the affected area 3-4 times a day. Make sure to improve your sleeping habits and maintain good posture during the day. If the pain persists, consult a healthcare professional for further evaluation.
