Hi,I am Dr. Shanthi.E (General & Family Physician). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
Went to a chiropractor on Monday with a stiff muscle on the left side of my neck. He made adjustments, as they do. Some were painful. Put a heating pad on last night before bed. This morning I awoke with a golf ball sized soft with a hard center like a knotted muscle and is still painful. Put an ice pack on it to see if that would help. Not much. Any suggestions?
