Hot shower and tylenol.

I didn't pull a neck muscle, but I went skating down the stairs the other day..does that count?

Teach me to wear socks going downstairs.

I srewed up my neck lifting free weights 20 years ago and it hasn't been the same since.

I feel for you! It took just over three weeks for mine to heal. And there is STILL a little stiffness in it 5 weeks later.


And then I got this freakin' canker sore in the back of my mouth. :|

I pinched a nerve in my neck before. Just checked my blindspot while driving. No weights involved...

Lateral moven't isn't too bad, but looking down hurts like a mofo.

Arg!!! Last time I hurt my neck like this was hunching over (quite stupidly) putting an 80 pound HT subwoofer into the trunk of a car about 3 years ago

Hmm I'm still recovering from a back injury I sustained lifting wieghts about 4 weeks ago myself. I think the problem is we start to really get some outstanding results from wieght training and we think we are Supermen and over do it. When I heal up I'm going to have to re-evaluate my technique so I don't have to deal with painful injuries like this. Maybe I'll lighten up on the free wieghts and use more Wieght Machines so I can isolate my muscles without putting as much strain on my back.
