Avoid situations that trigger neck pain

Other forum members note how limiting instances that spur and exacerbate neck pain has helped them achieve relief. They try to avoid activities like sitting at a computer for long periods of time, driving, heavy lifting, and other activities that require heavy use of the arms. If you cant limit some of these actions, try modifying them. For example, bring the steering wheel as low as possible and put a towel behind your neck when driving.
