Hello. Thanks for writing to us. The stiff an painful neck is more likely to be due to a muscle strain and stiffness related to dehydration. Taking adequate supplements and rest should help in decreasing the symptoms. I hope this information has been both informative and helpful for you. Regards, Dr. Praveen Tayal , drtayal72@gmail.com
