already tried:
- stretch the muscle
- working out (neck muscle)
- running
- ibuprofene
- sauna
- sex
- massage
some of these things are very useful on the short term, what did you do to get successfully rid of them?

Neck tension is mostly the result of tight shoulder/traps. Do shoulder dislocates, 10x3 3 times a day. Instead of a stick use a towel, when u finish the movement just let go and reset (unlike video) The key is to try to pull the towel apart as you pass over your head. | ||

I've had physical therapy for posture and whatnot, and while that has helped, it seems like dealing with stress is the biggest factor (for me). | ||

Stretching, self-massaging, and resting work well but there is no real quick remedy. Just have to remember to be diligent about body self-maintenance. And resting for a few days to relax yourself isn't the worst thing in the world. I remember when it first happened I could barely drive home from the gym I was so dizzy with headaches. I got home and could not even make it up the stairs all the way and felt like puking. Let's keep this thread going strong as I think it can help a lot of people! Please, those of you who are in the know about this sort of thing chime in!! | ||

Meant to post this a couple days ago but forgot. COmp died. Fix your arching neck in squats/pullups/dips/whatever.... and soft tissue work/mobility for the neck http://www.mobilitywod.com/2011/04/episode-228365-slaying-the-exertional-headache-beast.html | ||

However, the vital component to long term relief is to stretch and relieve tension all the time, especially while straining it. I've made it a habit to stretch every hour or so when using the computer or while studying, perhaps you can do something similar as well? Focus on what you spend most of the time, sleep (make sure your pillow isn't too high or low), computer time (make sure you're not looking up or down at the screen) and to always have good posture. Once you develop good habits, you won't need to solve neck problems, as they will just not occur. Good luck!! | ||

If you have anything stressing you out right now that could be the cause, and adding general tension relieving activities (meditation, tea drinking) could help. I've had physical therapy for posture and whatnot, and while that has helped, it seems like dealing with stress is the biggest factor (for me). Thats my expirience too, especially when I'm working for my exams. But avoiding stress in our time is like mission impossible, sorry to say that but I doubt tea drinking would help | ||

From my experience check these things: Do you sit most of the day? --> Is your Table the right height? --> Is your Chair the right height and set up correct? --> Is your screen set up right? (Notebooks are bad for this reason). --> Do you walk around from time to time? ---> Are you doing "some" sport (doesn't really matter much what you do as long as you move your back/neck, which means basically any sport ). | ||
