I have near constant neck pain and have done every route I can think to mitigate,manage,cure or deal with it. The strangest part is it switched sides randomly.

I have near constant neck pain and have done every route I can think to mitigate,manage,cure or deal with it. The strangest part is it switched sides randomly. I've tracked/logged it multiple times and can make no sense of why it switches. I think I need to track more things I'm doing to see what's related to it... neck surgery, stim, acupuncture, multiple types of therapies, heart, cold, massage, etc.. all give negligible results.
- mil0x 8y agoI'm sorry to hear you have constant pain. I deal with constant neck pain, and I can tell you two things that really, really helped (after trying pretty much everything and even considering surgery). The first one is reading "Healing Back Pain" by John Sarno. As an engineer the prospect of reading a book to manage pain sounded quite dumb, but I can assure you it removed 90% of the pain. The other thing that worked was taking 0.5mg Clonazepam whenever the pain got worse. I got the prescription from a doctor saying that it works for some patients with chronic pain. Please do yourself a favor and read that book, I hope it helps (it did help a very skeptical me one year ago).
