|
|
Hey all,
I was pumping some iron at the gym yesterday and managed to do my neck in , I am guessing poor form. After dosing up on Solpadeine I managed to ride the bike home. It got progressively worse over night so I took a trip to the GP this morning who has given me some Naproxen to take for the next month
He seemed to think its a neck trap strain and to go light on the exercise for a while but currently even with the extra drugs I am feeling like a cripple. It took me nearly 30 mins to work out how to get out of bed
So woe is me.. I have found a couple of light exercise on youtube that seem to give some temporary relief but if anyone has any tips I'm all ears. ____________________ "no I didn't steal it that's just the way I ride" |

And they say exercise is good for you!
The only advice I have is be very careful that you don't do something to make it worse. If it is still giving you real pain, go to the hospital A&E or walk in centre, they have much more expertise on hand than a GP. ____________________ Triumph Trophy Launch Edition |

Don't get it too close to your eyes.

My fella gets quite bad shoulder pain, hunched up in the van all day and then a couple of fall injuries that involved loss of tendons, but if I massage this stuff into his shoulder every so often, it gives him a lot of relief.

Depends what you've don I suppose. If it is a 'pull' then Deep Heat, Fiery Jack or similar plus taking it easy is the way to go. If it is more than a 'pull' then a visit to the quack. If the quack can't sort it you may need an x-ray.
I do like the sound of Itchy's ancient Chinese remedy of applying hot food to the area. My preference would be fish and chips with plenty s&v plus ketchup, but I'm guessing a lamb tikka would do just as well... ____________________ Now - Speed Triple, old ratty GS550, GSXR750M

Not sure I could stomach a Fray Bentos
Movement has started coming back now its just turning to the right or looking down that gives a healthy reminder that something ain't right.
The drugs also seem to actually make a difference now with the pain worse in the morning when I am trying to maneuver out of bed. After sitting at my desk all day it actually hurts less, then the kids get home :/ .
I am off to Belfast on Monday but if it's still bad when I get back I will pull out the work health insurance and get booked in to one of their physios. I've had the health insurance for 10 years and never used it so might as well.
As to how I did it, I was doing Tricep extensions and then it felt some one stabbed me in the neck with a knitting needle. Same weight as I have been lifting for months. I was a bit tired though so likely my form was off and I didn't spend long enough warming up. I'll be booking in for a PT session when I get back in the gym to see if I can work out what went wrong. ____________________ "no I didn't steal it that's just the way I ride" |

OP, have you tried swapping to the other hand.
I'm surprised your GP never spotted classic Phap-Induced, 'Tension Neck Syndrome'.
MTFU and get back tae yer work.
