Stiff Neck Injury
Acute torticollis, or wry neck are medical terms used to describe a sudden stiff neck. Usually the person wakes up with a stiff neck and neck pain, although occasionally the neck may become stuck following a sudden movement.
How to treat a stiff neck? Consult a physiotherapist to rule out conditions like a Slipped disc or Spondylosis. If there is no serious underlying problem, a neck pain pillow and soothing warm packs are very effective together with physiotherapy treatment.
Common Stiff Neck signs & symptoms:
- Waking up with a stiff neck.
- Stiff neck.
- Neck pain.
