What if I have a stiff neck?

Hot compress is a very good method with simple operation and very good effect. Everyone can do it. If there is a stiff neck, you can use a hot towel or hot water bottle to hot compress the painful part once every half hour, three times a day, so that the symptoms of stiff neck can be alleviated and the next day can return to normal.

2. Paste the plaster

Shangshi Zhitong Ointment and Buxiang Zhitong Ointment are externally applied to the neck pain area once a day, and the analgesic effect is ideal. However, the patient's neck movement is limited after applying the ointment, so it is not suitable for pregnant women.

3, massage therapy

Stiff neck massage mainly massages Fengchi point and stiff neck point. Fengchi point is located in the nape, under the occipital bone, flush with Fengfu point, and the depression between sternocleidomastoid muscle and the upper end of trapezius muscle;

The stiff neck is located on the back of the hand, between the second and third metacarpals, and about 0.5 inch behind the metacarpophalangeal joint. After finding the right acupoints, press these two acupoints with a thumb, and at the same time, you can move your neck slowly, subject to the feeling of soreness.

Extended data:

The main cause of "stiff neck" is muscle sprain. For example, when sleeping, the head and neck are overstretched or overstretched because the pillow is not suitable, and when taking a long-distance bus, the eyes are narrowed in the wind to see the scenery. In addition, exogenous wind and cold make the blood in the neck and back stagnate, which can easily lead to "stiff neck".
