Suggest Remedy For Neck Pain From An Injury

I just hit the top of my head pretty hard, my friend was lifting me up and we didn t realize how low the ceiling was and my head hit the ceiling pretty hard right on the top. I don t have any pain on my head but my neck hurts really bad, especially on the left side right at the top of my neck and towards the bottom of my head, and it hurts worse when I look to the right... This literally just happened so I don t know if I should be concerned.. I ve had concussions and I don t think I am concussed I m just worried about the neck pain... What should I do???

Physical Therapist or Physiotherapist 's  Response
Here you should use cold pack and hot pack frequently and check if you get any relief. Here I must suggest if your pain is intense and high in intensity then do visit doctor and do mri of cervical spine and brain to check there is no internal damage as well disc problem. Later you must take visit with orthopedic as well as with Physiotherapist for further treatment management. Specially if it's only soft tissue pain then physiotherapy will help you lot for soft tissue relaxation and pain relief. As well you can also take some stretching and strengthening exercise program from physio therapist as per your problem which will help you again to have some more pain relief. Take care.
