@#$!%$ Stiff Neck

I'm not sure if it's from lifting or from the way I sleep on it, but I keep getting this damn sore, stiff neck. It's from the back of my right trap up the right side of the back of my neck.

I stretch with neck rolls, shoulder rolls and apply moist heat with disappointing effect. Can anyone offer some good advice? perhaps some really good stretches or remedies?
 
Potassium helps sore muscles, so you could try some bananas, works for me. if it's persistant I'd eventually see a PT, because necks are not something you want to mess with.
 
just a thought but do you work in an office and do you use a headset for the phone, or are you too macho and hold the phone with a pinch between your ear and shoulder?
 
hahahahaha

so you use a headset for sure!

one arm holding the baby, one flipping the eggs, one flippin te channels on the T.V. and the phone pinched between your ear and shoulder!

I'm GENIUS!!!

you are sooooo dang cool Bro!

pals,

pals,

The other day I realized I was spreading peanut butter while talking to my wife on the phone and ;loading up an episode of "caillou"for my son on the DVR LOL I live a glamorous life

The whole time I'm lifting my 3 year old rides his tricycle around the basement, gets into stuff, and makes a mess LOL
 
That is a very special job and you have impact on your kids. i could go on and on, but it will make people who drop their kids off, so they can have a new car every year, feel bad.

;-) ;-O

Thanks FF, but I can't be too high and mighty because my wife makes a lot of money so we don't have to sacrifice as much as a lot of people would.
 
Well then Mr. Mom-0- help me out with a good pumpkin pie receipe. You are a great nutritionist, and a home maker.

whaycha got? Me and my son (health freaks) want to make a pie out of this big ol pumpkin.
 
Hey Gooch I'm having the same exact problems, except i'm much more worried since I'm only 14. I've tried the potassium advice and it seems to have no effect. If someone could answer this (and I appologize for hi-jacking), would a habit of neck-cracking have anything to do with this?
 
is it muscle tension? a lot of people get that pain when they excessively use their traps to try and elevate the shoulders for posture and such. Tryt tensing the traps and then focus on contracting your rhomboids..sometimes works for me when im sitting on the bus for ages...
