hi doctor, I am male aged 37 years , working as IT professional. i had to sit long hours and my life style is sedentary. around one month back i am suffering from neck pain. and sometime the pain is moving towards shoulder back. i visited doctor he did some checks and said that the muscles are strained . he showed me some exercises which i am doing he advised me to take Levocarnitine tablets daily for 20 days. and a sunlite sachet every week for 1 month. i do full fasting twice a month . whether this pain is the impact of fasting. Once i got my neck xray and it showed normal, I had swelling one side of my neck and there is no pain. doctor said not to worry it will become normal please advice. thank you for your time
