What are the Treatments for a Pulled Neck Muscle?
A pulled, or strained, neck muscle probably won’t need conventional medical care. In most moderate cases, home treatment, exercise and alternative therapies will ease neck pain and return the neck to fully functioning form. Doctors at the University of Maryland Medical Center recommend self-care to address the immediate symptoms of a neck strain and assist in recovery. But severely pulled muscles in the neck, such as cases related to whiplash or spinal injury, may require prescription medication or surgical repair.
