Sometimes, I have to carry a lot of heavy things. So when I do it sometimes, I feel soreness in my neck. It goes away after an hour or so but it keeps coming out. What should I do when it happens?:confused: Please help me!!! I am getting tired of the pain.

It's hard to give advice without a diagnosis, although most neck pain can be managed with a very rough diagnosis only.

If you can avoid heavy loads, great. If not, try some stretching and strengthening of the neck muscles. NSAID tablets afterwards might also help.

Getting someone who is knowledgeable about correct lifting technique to check your lifting technique (and correct if necessary) may also help!

Cheers,

Thanks for the reply;) . I am considering a visit to the physio to get some excersizes to do for my neck.
