I've pulled a muscle up the side of my neck. It's agonising - constant throb and pain radiating up into the base of my skull. Can't really turn my head for the pain. I've seen my osteopath who did what she could but she basically said I just have to wait for it to heal.
Thing is I have a baby and a toddler to take care of and alternating paracetamol and ibuprofen is barely touching it. I also can't sleep. Ice helps but only once it's at the point where my whole neck is numb, which I obviously can't do constantly.
Any tips? Can anyone tell me how long it's likely to last?
