For many people living with chronic neck pain, common treatments such as medications, ice, or heating pads do not always provide enough relief. Finding the best combination of treatments for your neck pain may take some trial and error. Here are some lesser-known tips for managing neck pain that you might want to consider.
- Don't stay in one position for too long, but if you get up and move around often enough, you'll avoid getting your neck stuck in an unhealthy position.
- Ergonomic adjustments. Position your computer monitor at eye level so you can see it easily. Use the hands-free function on your phone or wear a headset. Prop your tablet on a pillow so that it sits at a 45° angle, instead of lying flat on your lap.
- Don't use too many pillows. Sleeping with several pillows under your head can stifle your neck's range of motion.
- Choose a neck supporting chair: when you hunched with forward head posture for long time you place extra stress on spine, so maintaining your good posture which naturally balances your cervical spine and reduces neck pain.
- Get a good night's sleep. Sleep problems increase the risk for several different conditions, including musculoskeletal pain.
- Make time for mindful meditation.
