Hello,
Most probably this knot occurs due to deep massage which lead to soft tissue injury at your neck. I shall advise following to have relief in this:
- Take a mild analgesic like acetaminophen for relief in pain.
- Apply cold compresses over neck.
- Avoid any hard work for 2-3 days.
Most probably it will go away in next 3-5 days.
Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Regards,
Dr. Mukesh Tiwari, Orthopedic Surgeon
