Stiff neck after sleeping

Hello good people!

How are you all? The celebration is still bubbling there or everything is now on low-key? It's still bubbling here at my work place, parents bringing their children for ice cream treat, married couples trooping in to have nice time, unmarried couples flashing in with lovey-dovey swag🤣🤣.

Special thanks to you all for the support so far via your reads, likes, comments, upvotes and SPONSORSHIP. I love you all❤️. Take a look at my sponsors, three came in few days and some renewed theirs. I'm loved

Have you experienced a stiff neck pain after you woke up from sleep?

This is my second time experiencing this drama, the first one occured four years ago which I can't remember how the pain later disappeared, though I took drugs before the pain was severe and of course, the medicine didn't effect the relief.

Stiff Neck After Sleeping: From People around (Especially my parents), they said this pain comes when someone sleeps in a way he or she is not supposed to lie down. Maybe if you are used to a common pattern of placing your body while sleeping and you eventually adopts a sudden new pattern, that there's tendency of the neck being dislocated or misplaced and this bring pain because the neck would find it difficult to turn because it's stiff.

Another one also, they said if you're used to soft bed and decide to lay on floor(either ordinary floor or a floor that has a piece of clothe spread on it), there's every possibility of the neck to become stiff when you wake up.

And some other instances I've forgotten...

When this comes, it doesn't accept medicine for relief, it goes off on its own and that takes a maximum of three days.

My neck became stiff on the 26th December morning.

"Did I had a dream that we engaged in a boxing exercise that maybe my opponent gave me a hot blow on my neck?" Hahah🤣. That was the funny thing I thought that early morning when I woke up because it was the boxing day. I woke up with heavy pain on the left side of my neck that made it so difficult for me to turn properly. Due to the fact that I already know that processes behind it, I decided to manage it like that till the end of the day.

But during the afternoon period, I decided to go out to buy some stuffs across a road, I got the the road to cross to the other side, when I turned my neck to check left side to see if any vehicle was coming, I felt the pain and it was sharp this time. Immediately I got back, I had to ask my co-workers and staffs what they think could remedy the situation without drugs. Some suggested I should be twisting my neck while some suggested that I should use the other side to sleep all through the night yesterday in other to balance it up.

The funny remedies today🤣

Just like they said that it doesn't last long, I was expecting it to disappear this morning when I woke up from sleep today but the pain was as it was yesterday. My mind was telling me to go for drugs(knowing fully well that drugs don't have a say here), but no, I'm not ready to swallow drugs today.

I got to my barber's shop this morning and I told him my experience, he suggested that I should use towel to round my neck tonight while sleeping, that the towel will absorb the pain, massage my neck and I'd find my neck okay when I wake up the following morning. It sounded funny so .I laughed so loud🤣🤣🤣.

Getting back to my workplace, I decided to branch at the chemist shop close to us to see if he could offer any remedial process aside drugs. And he gave me the funniest of all. He said I should use a stick of mat to tie round my neck. "Do you mean mat?" I asked him and He answered "Yes". He said not just any mat but mat that have been on use, that I should pull out a line or rope from the mat and use it to tie round my neck, that it has the capacity to absorb the pain and return the pain to the mat. Hahahah he sounded mysterious, like a magical power in a used mat.

All these while I didn't bothered to check on Google to get some ideas...

How about you? Have you heard so encounter? Did you used any local means to conquer it or you used drugs? Feel free to let us know on the comment sections.
