What should I do for a rye neck?  It's been hurting me since I woke up this morning.?

well, my son has congenital rye neck and there are streches that you can do, strech your neck the opposite direction of the muscle that is tight. You can put a warm washcloth on it for a few min to relax it, or heating pad also.

Ouch! Nerve pain like that is just awful. If you haven't experienced it, you can't explain it to someone else. It is so intense! When I was in my forties, I wrenched my lumbar vertebrae helping a service man move a 300-lb. gas cylinder. I even heard it when my back went out. I went to a chiropractor, and he cleared that out in ONE visit. Until you find a way you are willing to try, use ice to reduce the inflammation. When you do that to your back, everything gets swollen up and pushed tightly together. The ice pack makes the muscles contract and open up inside so all the parts can move again. This tightening up is called "splinting," and is a natural mechanism your body uses to protect that painful place in your back. The ice pack should be kept on twenty to twenty-five minutes per hour, possibly four times during the day. You will notice it getting much easier to bear. The ice pack also tells your brain to send more blood to that area, which helps to flush all that congestion away from the sore spot. I strongly urge you to see a chiropractor. In ONE visit, you will be able to immediately find relief to a very considerable extent from what has probably been driving you up the walls. The problem with this kind of pain is that it is relentless and does not stop while you are trying to sleep at night. If you begin to miss your sleep cycle, you will get strung out, crabby and irritable, and that just adds to it. So - if you are not keen on chiropractors, go to your family doctor instead, but do not sit home, in agony and immobilized in a chair. That would be just too stressful. Call a best friend to drive you to and from, if that would help you. Reach out. I am hoping others in this column at Yahoo! Answers will also offer you ways to get better really quickly.

You can go to a doc.  and have it either frozen off or burned off.  In either case, that will hurt like hell at first, be uncomforatable for awhile, then feel better later.

Soak in a warm bath with epsom salts also take some tylenol or other OTC pain reliever. Go easier on yourself next time. Don't know of anything you can eat but keep drinking fluids(especially water to rehydrate)

You might try going to a massage therapist who has experience working with neck pain. If it is still painful after the massage, you should probably see a doctor. \n\nGood luck.

I used to freeze fruit juice and then rub it on my gums after my app. sometimes it would help with the swelling too. if you don't want that, just buy some popsicles. enjoy and i feel your pain and hope all is well with you!

Use antibiotic ointment around the raw area before you go to bed, it will moisten it and help it heal faster, good luck, I hope you feel better :)

Sounds like you have injured your rotator cuff.  Go to a doctor, get some x-rays, lay off using the shoulder for lifting weights.  Put ice on the shoulder to reduce swelling, and then heat to make the muscles relax.  Get a massage.  \n\nThe best you can do is to go to your doctor and get a professional opinion.  \n\nCheers, K

It should ease over the next 24 hours, try putting on a heat pack for 15 mins also, with some gentle stretches. Good luck, if still sore in 48 hrs prob need a bit of physio

Have you gone to a doctor yet?  It might be a sprain or a strain.  That can take anywhere from a few weeks to a year to heal.  I would stay off of it, and use ice if it starts to hurt too badly.  20 minutes with the ice, and 1 hour without it.  Do not keep the ice on for too long, because that can cause damage in and of itself.  I hope you heal up soon, babe!

I would see your local doctor.  My guess is your on some type of medication.  He/She can put you one  a lite pain reliever while the side of your chest heals.  The reason it hurts is you have been coughing for some time and the muscles on your side have been used and therefore ache.  If your Doctor can prescribe some stuff, your muscles can relax and heal, therefore relieving an pain in the future.

Firstly, how long have you had this pain? Secondly, what were you doing that caused this?  I find that besides cold/heat treatment, I use motrin.  It really helps me.  I also try to carefully, emphasize carefully, do back stretcht.  Lean forward slowly and to the side.  Lastly, try not to make major movement and then rest in combination with cold treatment and motrin.  Do no take more motrin than the recommended dosage/day.  \n\nGood luck.  If nothing works for a "long" time see an MD or a chiropractor.
