Neck Stiffness / Wry Neck

It is quite common to have patients
complaint of/ stiffness after wake up from sleep.

The 1st thought, "could be because I didn't sleep properly last night",
or "it is time to change my pillow",
Picture
another myth is: "I didn't dry my hair properly last night",
"I wash my hair too late yesterday",
"my pillow is wet".

All these myths are due to poor understanding of human about wry neck pain.

To your surprise, acute neck pain often attack the non-dominant upper limbs.
Picture
When neck muscle spasm,
it will appear in SHARP pain.
Especially turning /rotating to the same side of spasm.
Therefore, it is NOT ADVISABLE to continue
turn to pain side as exercise!!!

Picture
Continue to turn to pain side,
inhibits the tired / overworked muscle from resting.

Indeed, the most proper exercise is,
turn towards the opposite side,
look down at the armpit,
you will feel comfortable stretch feeling
over the spasm muscle.

meanwhile, it is advisable to apply ice pack
5-15min, with interval 2hourly

Picture

Why Wry Neck happen??

It is due to the muscle, named Levator Scapulae
has been in tightness mode,
overworked / overused condition.

Overused muscle characterised with cramp at night,
just like our calf cramp.
Little exertion is sufficient to trigger a cramp.

Picture
What cause Levator Scapulae to overwork?
Poor posture with rounded shoulder
Scapula winging / protracted
Non Dominant arm
Picture
Poor posture & Winging scapula
are due to stiffness of 2 important muscles,
which are Short Head Biceps & Pectoralis Minor
& weakness of 1 stabilizer muscle
Serratus Anterior

Pain doesn't mean its aging. Very often, it's just biomechanical fault throughout the years of usage.​
