How the hell do you get rid of a pinched nerve in your neck? Ive tried heating pads, massages, really strong painkillers etc
Anyone got any other methods?
I think i moved wrong while sleeping cause i woke up with the worst pain in my neck and can barely fuckin move my head. I took 2 oxycontin 80's and its still fuckin killing me

Hot bath. Really hot. Steamy hot. Relax. Pull your legs out of he tub and just submerge your entire waist.
Then slowly float back up and relax. Close your eyes and forget about the pain. When you come out... it should be gone.

I tried a hot shower but fuck, it didnt work. well, it worked while i was in the shower. as soon as i got out, my neck got stiff again
I hate baths too...unless i have a hot girl in the tub with me, then its a whole different story 
Thats what i need, a full body massage from a sexy girl

How to Treat a Pinched Nerve
Pinched-nerve pain can last for months. To manage long-term pain, you must be willing to try different methods of pain relief and modify treatments as necessary.
Steps:
1. Visit your family doctor, chiropractor or neurologist.
2. Take aspirin or ibuprofen to relieve discomfort. Taking two aspirin every day, even when you aren't suffering acute pain, can help prevent pinched-nerve pain from worsening.
3. Apply hot or cold packs to the site of your pinched nerve. Sometimes ice will work better than heat; at other times, a heating pad will do a better job of relieving pain. Try both to see which one is more effective for you.
4. Lift and carry only lightweight objects. Avoid sports that cause you to make sudden jarring motions, like football.
5. Eat a diet rich in fiber, fruits and vegetables to prevent constipation. Straining to defecate stresses the body.
6. Massage the area that is sore. Be careful not to prod too harshly over the sore spot.
7. Try various relaxation techniques, like breathing deeply. They can help calm your mind and body.
8. Ask for help. Having someone in the house to assist you with your chores of daily living can do a lot to speed your recovery.
9. Ask your doctor for prescription pain relievers if severe pain continues. It is pointless for you to suffer with unrelenting pain |
But unless you have numbness/tingling, it's probably something other than a pinched nerve

like just straight-up neck pain
| Quote: | Treatment
How neck pain is treated depends on what the diagnosis reveals. However, most patients are treated successfully with rest, medication, immobilization, physical therapy, exercise, activity modifications or a combination of these methods.
For example, if pain is caused by inflammation as a result of stretching muscles and ligaments beyond their limits, your orthopaedist may prescribe rest and a neck collar for a specified period of time, as well as medication to reduce inflammation. If medication is prescribed to reduce pain, it should be used only as directed and should not be taken for extended periods of time. In addition, remember that if your orthopaedist prescribes rest, it is vital that you follow instructions carefully.
When neck pain persists or is chronic, your orthopaedist may recommend a rehabilitation program that includes an exercise program and various types of physical therapy to help you relieve your pain and prevent it from coming back.
Very few patients require surgery to relieve neck pain. For the vast majority of patients, a combination of rest, medication and physical therapy will relieve neck pain. Surgery may be necessary to reduce pressure on the spinal cord or a nerve root when pain is caused by a herniated disk or bony narrowing of the spinal canal. Surgery may also be required following an injury, to stabilize the neck and minimize the possibility of paralysis such as when a fracture results in instability of the neck.
Your orthopaedist is a medical doctor with extensive training in the diagnosis and nonsurgical and surgical treatment of the musculoskeletal system, including bones, joints, ligaments, tendons, muscles and nerves.
This brochure has been prepared by the American Academy of Orthopaedic Surgeons and is intended to contain current information on the subject from recognized authorities. However, it does not represent official policy of the Academy and its text should not be construed as excluding other acceptable viewpoints. |
| Quote: | Most neck pain responds well to home care. Neck injuries or strains often result in painful inflammation. You may want to try over-the-counter pain relievers that also combat inflammation, such as aspirin, ibuprofen (Advil, Motrin IB, others) or naproxen sodium (Aleve). Acetaminophen relieves pain but not inflammation.
Ice is another good way to reduce inflammation. Heat can help relax sore muscles, but it sometimes aggravates inflammation, so use it with caution. Apply heat or ice for 15 to 20 minutes, with a 40-minute rest between applications. |
so just keep taking the pain medication, try not to move it too much, and get some rest
oh, and maybe get a pillow like this: (cervical pillow)

When shit like that pisses you off, waiting for time to pass is very excruciating.
Pain makes everything last longer

chiropractic care is the best. But first try ice. PKs treat the symptoms, not the cause.
A subflexation will not only cause pain and muscle soreness, but can make all sorts of weird things happen that you wouldnt associate with your neck. Hope it gets better. Ice and massage first. good luck.

The welders curse. Cold helps, so cold pads and Ibuprofen. I had that for 15 years now.

If I have a really soar neck or any other soar area it really helps if someone places their hand on that spot. I think its the heat from the hand or something. As long as that hand is there the pain is soo much better. Trouble tho is other person gets tired of it. My own hand doesn't work.
I wish I could help more. |
I wish you could too
@Yourgod
Its true. Alot of welders have serious neck pains. You know the one im talking about? starts where your neck and head meet and goes right down to the pressure point under your shoulder blade....fuck i hate it. |

7-10 days and it will be gone; the doctor will tell you the same...
but a massage is always a good thing - perhaps it helps.
