I have been taking alieve and Tylenol several times a day. What can I do for it or why do you think it s getting worse? Should I go to chiropractor? I have no insurance.
[|AI|]  HiT hank you for asking ChatDoctorI have gone through your query. Injury to back of neck can be variable. It can be a ligament injury to fractures of vertebrae or intervertebral disc damage. An examination with orthopedic will give clue for that and X-ray followed by MRI might be required to confirm it. In such conditions I advise immobilization of neck in cervical collar NSAIDs like diclofenac muscle relaxants like thiocolchicoside and neurotrophic Chat Doctor. I also send them for physiotherapy and muscle strengthening exercise if there is no fracture or serious injury. Hope this may help you. Let me know if you have any further query.
