Suggest Medication For Neck Pain

My daughter is 2yrs 3months old and today when I picked her up from daycare she touched the back of her neck and said it hurts and cried. She has done this now several times and in between the times she hold her head and cries she is playing like normal only she seems to be holding her neck still.

Pediatrician 's  Response
Hello,

As she has been crying and holding back of her neck several times and having static tone of her neck while playing then she might be having some stretching or sprain of ligaments of neck or stretching of muscles. You may use medications like Paracetamol or Ibuprofen for pain relief. But, it would be better to consult orthopedic surgeon.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
Dr. Khan Shoeb Mohammad Sher Mohammad
