Brief Answer:
Soft tissue damage

Detailed Answer:
Hi,

Thanks for writing back.

I have seen the xray attached. There is no any sort of damage to the bones in the neck. It could be a old injury which we usually cant make out in xrays or it could be a soft tissue injury .

I suggest you go for physiotherapy which may take time but surely help you out. When one cannot find any sort of damage in the bones , the management of the pain becomes more conservative.

Hope, I answered your query.

Brief Answer:
Pain management is not the resort

Detailed Answer:
Hi,

Thanks for writing back.

As i told if there was a physical damage seen, there could be a definitive treatment.

There is no pathology in the bones . So search should be made to identify soft tissue injury. An MRI is the gold standard test to identify such problems.

Brief Answer:
not even significant soft tissue injury

Detailed Answer:
Hi,

Thanks for the report.

Mri scan too rules out any significant soft tissue injury. I would still recommend the best modality of treatment being Physiotherapy.

For temporary relief I would advice a painkiller with a muscle relaxant for a better relief.

An example - Diclofenac with Tizanidine.
