Put some frozen peas on it maybe.

Massage it or get your bloke to massage it.

How did you pull the muscle?

twisted my neck sharply this morning -I know- but my kid was falling off the bed.

Not like a crick. Really frickin painful.

Doing peas, thanx didnt think of that.

Its horrible, I often do my neck and shoulders. Basically just have to take loads of Nurofen and live with it. I find lying on a flat floor is quite nice and lots of massage off Samm tends to help. But I'm afraid you may have to grin and bear it for a few days luv.

alternate a packet of frozen peas with a hot water bottle in a towel, every 10 minutes for an hour, twice a day. It makes the muscles passively expand and contract by increasing and decreasing the blood flow to the injured area, so should promote faster healing....relieves pain too. Take 400mg nurofen every 8 hours for 3 days and then see how you are.
