Spine Surgeon 's  Response
Hi,

First of all you need not to have any rest as most of the people believe. Start with normal walking as much as you can and increase distance gradually over time up to 4 km. Along with if pain is less then you can also do isometric cervical neck exercises which you can learn from YouTube.

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

Regards,
Dr. Anuj Gupta,
