Hello,
Thanks for your query.
It is also called as wryneck.
Stiff neck associated with muscle spasm.
Common treatments might involve a multi-phase process:
- Low impact exercise to increase neck stability.
- Manipulation of the neck by a physiotherapist.
- Extended heat application.
Hope I have answered your query.
I will be available for your follow up queries if any.
Wishing you good health.
