[I am still oxox]

I slept wrong for the last few nights and as a result I pulled a muscle in my neck and shoulder, I am walking around very uncomfortable and dizzy, Tonight I am going to try a different pillow and see if it makes a difference, I am taking tylenlol 3 times a day and I am still miserable Any suggestions. Thanks all

I like yo use bio freeze.  They have both roll on or spray so you don't  have to get it valley over your hands.

@I am still oxox  My ex husband who used to work out a lot gave me some advice when I pulled a muscle.  He said to take ibuprofen.   I believe Tylenol is acetaminophen. 

You may want to give ibuprofen a try.  I used the Walmart generic and it's pretty inexpensive.

Also, have you ever tried a "my pillow"?  Regardless of what people think of the guy, his pillow is a lifesaver for me and I wouldn't be without it. 

buprofen basics

Ibuprofen is a nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID). As the name suggests, it tends to be most helpful for discomfort that goes hand in hand with inflammation, which can include redness, swelling, heat, pain and/or loss of function at the site or source. That makes it a smart pick for pain such as:

• Back and neck pain.
• Earache.
• Menstrual cramps.
• Muscle sprains and strains.
• Sinus infections.
• Toothache.

Acetaminophen basics

Acetaminophen is a type of drug called an analgesic. Translation: It reduces pain signals within the nervous system and not at the site itself. That makes it a good choice for pain such as:

• Headaches.
• Joint pain/arthritis.
• Sore throat.

@AnjalenaQVC   Thank you for removing that post.

@I am still oxox  I've had that a few times and it is miserable!  I've tried several things and what worked best for me was a heating pad that I managed to position in that shoulder/neck area as I laid in the bed on my back.  Heat helped me the most.
