Get a massage
A massage on your neck is good to prevent and treat this type of pain, mainly when it is triggered by muscle tension or stress. Actually, asking for a massage can make a difference and reduce muscle strain and tension. Sometimes, these symptoms are made worse by a stressful life. So, if you usually have this neck pain problem after a long day at work, stress probably has something to do.
Other options to relieve stress include exercising, practicing mindfulness, drinking soothing tea, or just hanging out with friends and having a good time with them.
