Brief Answer: Description below Detailed Answer: Hello, Thanks for your query. Some exercises which can be done after pain has reduced include- gradual neck rotation, touching your ears to shoulder, shoulder shrugging exercises. You may consult physiotherapist for further guidance. He may start INTERFERENCE THERAPY, ULTRASONIC THERAPY, which are helpful in your case. Some life style modifications for you – Take break every 40 min from computer and do some neck rotation, stretches, walk and get back to work. Sit with taking support to your neck, do not use thick pillow in bed. Some medication like methylcobalamine with muscle relaxant and analgesic will help, you can take them consulting your treating doctor.
