                                    Brief Answer:
Diclofenac gel
Detailed Answer:
Hi,
Thanks for your query.
You can apply Diclofenac gel over the affected part. but very essential you have to rest after application of the painkiller gel. Rest relaxes the neck muscles and helps to recover faster. The more work you do, more they get strained and cause pain.
You can also apply a neck collar to relax the neck muscles.
Regards,
