Question:
Whats a good way to deal with pain in my neck and shoulder?
I have just started a month of chiropractic manipulation for my back and neck being out of alignment and its hurting. The doctor has given me a wheat back that provides periodic relief but I'm not sleeping and continually in pain. Any suggestions might help.
Answers:
alternating hot and cold/ice packs should give you some relief.
heat increases circulation to the area, cold reduces the imflammation. about 10-15 minutes of each for about an hour.
I have had plenty of chiropractic care in my life for multiple injuries they should have instructed you to do so. Also a NSAID (non steroidal anti inflammatory) like ibuprofen will give you some relief.
