Have you ever woken up in pain and not able to turn your head very well? Ever yawned and experienced a sudden grab in your neck? Ever had a niggle at the corner where your neck joins your upper body that just won’t go away? If you have, I’m sure you will agree it is something to be avoided at all costs! Not only is it uncool to walk around looking like a stiff-necked Thunderbird puppet, it is just too easy for your kids/colleagues/partner to play tricks on you (eg Try this: go and sit next to the person with the neck injury, on the side they can’t turn to, and have a conversation with them. Very funny to watch them swivel their whole body around, wincing, to try to focus on you). Anyway I would never advocate making fun of a person with an injury (but that doesn’t stop you doing it…). Issues with the discs in your neck are definitely something that can be avoided using simple steps, so have a read of this useful article, and whip your head around with glee!
