Hi there, I am sorry for the painful situation you are going through. If you are having recurring pain in neck, it might be related to: - spondyloarthritis (arthritis of spine at neck level), which is compressing the roots of nerves passing by - muscular strain - problems with blood circulation locally I advise to do an X-ray of neck area to see if any change locally. Meanwhile, I advise to: - wear warm compresses at the neck - keep your neck always covered - apply analgesic cream locally - take oral analgesic (acetaminophen, ibuprofen, etc.) - take multivitamins of B group Hope it was of help! Wish fast recovery! Dr.Albana
