has anyones child ever strained their neck?

[cheeryface]

i don't know how, neither does he but he has been in agony since yesterday.

the doctor said painkillers and warmth and could take a while to settle.

i am wondering how long he's going to be in pain like this, he can't do anything but lie down.

ds did this recently and it took about a week to recover completely. He enjoyed the novelty of drinking through a straw sideways.

My DS1 did this, fighting with DS2 IIRC, got his head trapped in a door and ended up with a really sore neck. He was crying with the pain and we tried to get him an appointment with the Chiropractor, he was fully booked so figured we would leave it a couple of days and it eased off by itself.

thanx, it's really hurting him despite having the calpol.

can't use ibruprofen.

strange though it just started hurting in the bath, didn't seem to have actually done anything
