I would love to hear from anyone who has ever had neck or spine injuries. What made you feel better and what did the doctors do for you. Thanks, Kari98
Thank for your suggestion for pain. Kari98
I was in a car wreck, too, broke my back in three places. I live with a profound, deep ache there. Over the years, this telegraphed into my lower back, which gave me a different pain, very sharp. Lyrica is the only medication that ever did anything for that low back pain. But the old injury, it still hurts no matter what I take. If you haven't already, get an MRI done of your neck, it will show the nerves in there and how they're doing. One other thing I do for my original injury is, when it bothers me, I lay down flat on the floor with my legs up in a chair or up on the couch, let my arms fall out to the sides. Takes all the weight off the spine. Most of the time it makes it stop hurting for a while. Also, massage therapy is helpful, Swedish massage is the best kind for me, breaks up all the tension in the muscles that builds up from pain, for a while anyway.
