    Default Crink in Neck

    I slept funny last night, and my neck sort of hurt when I got up. But as the day has gone on, it's gotten way worse. I can't even look to the left right now. The pain has moved up from my neck to the back of my skull and down through my shoulder. I haven't done this in years. God it hurts and sucks.

    How do you massage this out of it? I googled it and didn't find anything. Probably because 'crink' is not a word, but what else do you call it? I've been pushing the muscle around, but it just seems to make it worse.

    I think you have a cervical neck spasm. I had one about 10 years ago- just woke up and couldn't move my neck. I was prescribed Valium & told to wait a few days.

    ugh this happens to me occasionally. You just have to wait, or take drugs. Maybe try some yoga or massage, but don't expect much!

    It sounds like torticollis. Try anti-inflammatories, muscles relaxers if you have them, heat, massage and gentle stretching.

    Thanks. I'm babysitting my bro at my mom's while she's out of town...I'll check out what pills she has left over from surgery. Advil is holy not cutting it. I can't believe how painful this is. Searing knives.

    When I catch a crick in my neck, it always helps to stretch out my neck and my whole spine. Sit down and do large neck/back circles. Or lay backwards off the side of the couch/bed. I dunno...that usually does it for me. Also make sure you make stretching your spine/neck a habit so you can maybe avoid these cricks in the future.

    Topical anti-inflammitory perhaps? When I used to jack up my neck all the time, I'd slather the crick with Aspercreme, BenGay, and ArniceGel. Plus lots of ibuprofin. And don't stress the area!

    Go to a good chiropractor. One good adjustment should do the trick.

    I've had something similar happen. I just try to stretch it out and rub it and take Tylenol. Eventually it goes away. Yesterday I turned my head funny and felt a pinch. I also cracked my neck and felt something like a lightning bolt shoot up my side. I think I just hold a lot of tension in my neck.

    weird. i was JUST about to post the same thing. i have literally had this same problem for THREE WEEKS now. i've missed a bunch of days at work. i feel you. i SO feel you.

    the good news (for you) is.. everyone told me it'd go away in three or four days. so, maybe yours will. mine sure as hell didn't.

    Maybe you should try a new pillow?

    ^^That sucks, Penny. Maybe you could try a chiropractor?

    My neck is much better...two days of stretching/ pain killers have helped. I still can't quite look all the way left, but it's definitely an improvement.
