[#1324244]

Woke up last week with a bit of a stiff back (vertabrae between the shoulder blades).

The stiffness has now moved into my neck. Tried ibuprofen and deep heat. Tried clicking neck, back, rotating shoulders.

Any ideas on how to one, relieve the pain. Two, free the joints/muscle?

No fall, and ride a full-sus.

Started last wed. woken up this morning (and during the night) to increased pain.

Off to physio tomorrow for my arm. Would it be cheeky to ask the physio to have a look at it?

Physio could recommend exercises/stretches but not muscular-skeletal?
