Hey everyone , I'm really sorry this is off topic but it does have to do with my excercise so I guess it's okay.Well since yesterday I took a nap and when I woke up had a horrible crick in my neck on the left side and I still do.It hurts very bad and in alot of pain.I tried icy hot , ibuprofen and a hot shower , still no luck.I went ahead and worked out today and it was horrible was very slow at it cause it hurts so bad and wanna get back to normal workout speed tommorrow but if it's in this much pain im not sure if i can , any advice on this or tips to hopefully relieve are very appreciated , feeling horrible

    You need a nice massage. I had the same problem the other day, i was watching a movie and felt like i was being a lazy slug so i slid down and with my head still resting on the chair i did a butt up and i pulled my neck. I bribed my fiance for a massage. it went away by the end of the movie.

    Chiropractor... I love mine. I go to him once a week now. What you have is called a subluxation. The Chiropractor can fix it fast.

    It's fairly normal to have it occur in your neck. Hang in there.

    Sometimes Soaking in a Hot Spa while stretching helps me.

    It’s not at all. At least for me it wasn’t . I was in a head on collision with a dump truck and my head went through the windshield so, as you can imagine, my neck and back were throughly fubar’d . When he adjusts you it’s like you hear a “pop” or “crack” and then instant relief.

    Sometimes I over do it when I exercise just so I can feel the pop and tenth relief after... weird, I know. I don’t know how else to explain it but it just feels so good

    I don't know if anyone here is familiar with a guy named Harley Race from waaaay back when in the wrestling world, but I had the pleasure of working with him a few times, and he is one of those guys that just has magic hands.

    I had a neck and back problem one day, and he said let me look at it.

    Next thing I knew he grabbed me twisted me I screamed for about a second....and just went "ohhhhhhh" after that LOL.
