Guys help me with my stiff neck ???

[atom05]

Hi all Pexers last week medyo nararamdaman ko na madali akong magka stiff neck...nag-try na ako ng malambot na pillow at yung medyo matigas na pillow din, pero nagkaka-stiff neck pa din ako at pag sa work naman pag matagal ang hawak ko sa mouse ay sumasakit naman ang right shoulder medyo mataas kasi yung table kung saan nakalagay ang mouse at keyboard. usually nawawala naman siya mga 2-3 days pag nag-gygym ako. Any suggestion dyan kung paano ko maiwasan ang stiff neck minsan kasi hirap ako matulog ng tuloy tuloy nararamdaman ko agad siya pag nakadapa ako at nakatagilid ang ulo ko parang na-stuck siya... thanks...

learn some mobility drills, have someone check your traps if they are tight

medyo matigas nga yung traps ko sir... and what kind of mobility drills? usually ini-exercise ko yung ulo like rotation, pause left and right at minsan pinatutunog ko like sa kamay pero di naman siya masakit, mas ok nga sa pakiramdam pag tumunog...

Sir Blake and all PEXERS here... ask ko lang po kasi last 2 weeks ko nastart maramdaman na madali akong ma-stiff neck pag matutulog at madali na din mangawit yung right shoulder ko sa work... ang sabi sa akin ay magtake daw ako ng pharex B complex. OK ba uminom nun habang nagwowork out ako? Add ko pa po SL 5x5 kasi ang program ko at every other day ko siya ginagawa. Posible bang nag-cause ng madalas kong stiff neck at ngawet yung SL 5x5 di kaya nabigla po ako pero yung binubuhat ko naman ay yung kaya ko...? thanks uli... by the way I'm 5'10" and 140 lbs. and 1 1/2 months na akong nag-gygym...

It could also be due to your sitting position when you work.. you spend 8 hours of your day in that office, if your keyboard is realatively high then it could lead to muscle pains on your back neck and traps.. i would suggest get a higher chair lol. then prob do some stretching in between work about every 1 hours if you could walk around and do some stretching i think it would help

thanks for the info Doc... kanina nag-gym ako at siningit ko sa routine ko yung para sa traps ko and medyo ok na wala na yung feeling na may muscle pain sa neck at shoulder ko...At bukas paggising oobserbahan ko uli kung may stiff neck na naman ako... thanks again...

+1 on the higher chair if you cannot lower your table/worksurface. Or sit on a cushion if you cannot adjust your chair height.

A deep tissue massage might help temporarily.
