Hi,I am Dr. Gopal Goel (Orthopaedic Surgeon). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
HI! My concern is that I have a pain in my upper back on the left side around the lower part of my neck. Not necessarily around the shoulder, and when I hunch just a bit I get a burning pain that I believe is in my muscle in that area. It started when I was gardening and bending over for about an hour at a time. I understand that it wasn't very smart but now it is happening just when I am standing. Ibuprofen does not seem to help. I have tried heat as well. Could this be an ongoing issue or is bedrest a better solution (which of course I cannot do at this time)IS there anything over the counter I can use to help? Thank you!
this is a muscle spasms and you need analgesic like iprofen and also you need muscle relaxant 1 capsule every 6 hours for 4 days and hot foment at this area.
