Detailed Answer:

Hi,

Neck pain after sleeping is likely due to awkward sleeping positions, use of incorrect sized pillows etc, and is sure to resolve in 2-3 days time.

I would suggest you to do the following:
- Apply heat fomentation twice daily over the affected area for 15-30 min.
- Take T. ZERODOL- P sos, for pain relief, as an when needed.
- Avoid using pillow for a few days from now.


I hope this helps,
