This means good neck posture, especially when resting or sleeping. No thick pillows.

A neck injury can take many months of disciplined behavior to heal.

My best to you.

Thank you that is really helpful. I will seek a physio. Could you recommend any safe neck excercises I could do at home?

Again thank you!
