Thread: What do I do for neck pain?

Yesterday, I went skiing. I was doing good, not falling much, until I fell pretty badly on one of the bigger hills. It hurt real bad, but I got back up and continued. I woke up this morning to a tremendous amount of pain, all over the left side of my body. The main spot of pain, however, is in my neck and shoulder. I can't turn my neck to the left because of how much it hurts, either.
What can I do for this pain? Advil isn't helping it. Any advice?

Go to a chiropractor

Icy hot or have someone rub it,maybe even a hot bath

Neck injuries can be very serious, I would call your doctor and schedule an appointment if possible. If not, I would go to the Emergency Room.

If you have one of those bean bag sort of things that you can heat up it should help. Try rolling it around a little and if it still hurts in three days make an appointment with your doctor.
