Suggest Treatment For Pain In Neck And Upper Back

Have many pains in my neck and upper back..sometime it lasts for weeks then it goes away..I am on blood pressure medications and have been for many years, I am a 60 year female..I have had a biopsy done on my thyroid (no cancer) but many nodules. Have had many tests that say my thyroid is functioning normal...Saw a thyroid doctor last year that said I am suffering with thyroid problems, however, he was a holistic doctor that insurance does cover..I have a bottle of actalin, but have not taken any yet. Would you please advise....

General & Family Physician,  's  Response
Hi,
Thanks for posting in HCM.
After going through your description, it appears that you must be facing with muscle weakness due to underlying systematic illness and age related changes.
Take Ipuprofen with Chloroxazone combination (Analgesic + Muscle relaxant) for pain.
Take calcium supplementation for a month.
Your pain in neck and upper back should gradually subside and you should get better.
Other medications what you are taking should be continued.
I find this answer helpful
