Hi @marie_swan and welcome. There's a few simple exercises here to help strengthen your neck :- https://www.mayfieldclinic.com/PE-NeckEx.htm Just take care if you do them. Start slowly and gently. Ease up if you feel any pain.
marie_swan Hello Marie in response to your post ,,,,, been there, gentle neck massage although it won't take this away but can help I don't know what medication you're taking could it be a side effect? 🤔 I know at the time it wasn't medication with me but the contrary MS. And MS symptoms are contrary. This will abate unfortunately I can't give you a time frame it just leaves. I'm wondering like me have you lesions at the base of your brain we'll call it (with me they're front side & back of the brain) You do need rest if driving prop the back of your neck with a soft neck pillow cheap as nuts it will help. I'm so sorry you're suffering this it's damn uncomfortable & can feel like the spine wants to get out & tango more especially if you're driving distance. Not quarter way through journey just feel like giving up needing rest. Give yourself time this is a very stressful & difficult symptom to come to terms with & just as you do come to terms with this discomfort & pain it stops. Always here, mind yourself & REST. Jane 💜
