Remedying a pinched nerve kinda

[Deciever]

Early today i guess i moved my neck wrong and i have one of those things where if you move it a certain way, it hurts. Mine severe, like it hurts like a bitch if i move it. At one point i couldnt move my neck to the sides at all. Its annoying as hell, and it's been like this for about 7 hours... i've tried massaging it, heating it, icing it, none of that really worked.

Any ideas on how i can get rid of it, so i can function properly again??

Damn man that sucks, Ive had a pinches nerve in my neck/trap/shoulder area back when I played football, you know, a "stinger" Well the only thing I did was take a shit load of Motrin
and rest. Im not sure if that is what you have or not though. I would wait and see what everyone else says but if it gets worse go to the doc.

One word: IBUPROFEN

A pinched nerve is caused by pressure on the nerve. Ibuprofen will relieve the inflamation and relieve the pressure on the nerve. Hope this will help.

i have been resting.... and i've been taking 2 ibuprofen every 4-6 hours... doesnt relieve much of the pain, but it helps a bit. I just hope its better by tomorrow so i can squat

time works best. i had a really bad one once and just tried to avoid moving my neck much and getting a good nights sleep in a position comfortable for my neck... in a day or two it got better. i'd try to move it a little more every once and a while too

i've never had it for more than like 3 hours., but this time its been about a day and a half.
I regained most motion, but i cant move it quick.

It ruined my squat workout today, but i guess its gettin better
