I asked when the pain started, she claimed after she undergoes operation for her neck around six months ago.

I found her upper back muscle to be very #Weak. The right side of the scar was overactive. Her neck muscles also gets very tight.

Therefore, release the tight muscle and strengthening the weak muscle, She claim the pain reduced! She claimed no more sharp pain on the neck and upper back at night.

p/s: Main causes of neck pain usually due to muscle imbalance. Identify what muscle is tight and what muscle is weak. Release the muscle that is tight and strengthen the weak muscle can help reduce the symptoms.

Seek help from #Professional physiotherapist if your suffered persistent neck pain and it become worsen.
