The exercises will help, even just 5-10 minutes twice a day. I’ve had my neck lock up in times of stress, and it’s hell. I think I got my heating pad at your favorite — CVS! It’s made for necks with a switch you hold down while it’s heating and then let go when it’s hot enough. After a little time doing that, I then do the exercises — very gently. Helps me greatly.
There’s a massage guy that works in Jamaica, but also comes to NYC a few times a year. He is a real miracle worker. I have lower back problems, too [from lifting boxes years ago] and he did some really wacky-seeming movements and pressure points on my outer hip/leg, and it resolved my lower back problem for months afterward! He’s an interesting character. I’ll email you his info, if you like.
It could be stress, Biff. I’ve had problems with my neck quite a few times. A really good massage therapist can help. Have you tried a heating pad – they have one for necks. I use one and it’s great. A physical therapist can give you exercises to help, too.
Also, sometimes changing how you sit at the computer at work helps.

We need to get legion’s father to join the evil PLUSA conspiracy – I say we keep him and toss legion! 🙂
Cobble, thank you! I have some exercises and have been too lazy to do them. A heating pad sounds like a good idea.
Biffers – Get a TENS unit. (I can google that for you…)
Kens, can we switch union staff??? With all the headcount, fancy equipmt, etc, crew here doing really crappy job
LOL! legion, Needless to say, I agree with your papi!! “Bush is un mentiroso”!!
Legion – Your father sounds like a very wise, not to say sage, man. Listen to him. Learn from him.

Cobble;

te dije que no voy a votar por
Obama.
