Sore posterior and collar (read on)
I've been waking up every daylight with a sore neck and rear. Is there any way I can relieve this without medication?
Answer: Yes!
- have a chafe
- see a chiropractor
- See a doctor to conduct some tests (to see if it's not soft tissue, i.e. nervous tissue, unified irritation, etc.)
- try a new pillow
- warm hip bath before bed with 3 cups epsom salt
- heating pack on the areas of soreness
- stretch before bed and when you take up
- try a yoga class
- try meditation to relax you before bed (you might be sleeping through stress which can leave you fundamentally unrested and tense)
- frequent exercise encourages general body strength, preventing injury and irritation
Medication is not always the answer, and I would encourage you to try other treatments and lifestyle change before putting drugs in your body :) If you positively need to get through the time before you can get to see a pat therapist or another therapist, you could bring an ibuprofen (advil, etc.) to reduce sensation of pain and closing date inflammation.
Good luck, feel better!

YES TAKE MOTRIN BEFORE BEDTIME TAKE TWO OF THE 2OOMG THAT EQUAL 400MG THAT IS WHAT THE DOCTOR WOULD ORDER FOR YOU. THEN MAKE SURE YOU USE A HEATING PAD FOR 20 MIN. THREE TIMES A DAY. ALSO USE A MORE COMFORTABLE PILLOW AND POSITION IT UNDER YOUR NECK IN A COMFORTABLE POSITION MAKING SURE IT SUPPORTS YOUR NECK. HOPE THIS HELPS IF IT DOES NOT GET BETTER IN THE NEXT 3 DAYS. CALL AND MAKE AN APPOINTMENT WITH AN ORTHOPEDIC DOCTOR. Maybe it has to do next to the mattress that you are sleeping on. Maybe try sleeping on a friends for a night and then if you are better later you need a new mattress. If not consequently it would be a medical issue. Then you would need to see your doctor.

see a chiropractor, get a squeeze, try yoga, swim, soak in a hot tub, take advil/alleve, consider repetitive work that you may do, and follow up next to a doctor if these tips don't bring relief. I doubt it. I have have the same problem for almost 6 years. Medicine will help you. Good luck!
