Hi I'm not sure exactly what you mean by narcotics for pain medication.
But its definately not a thing that is unusual to need something stronger than the over the counter medications for pain. And another thing is that
the more you can take it easy and try to take things at a slower rate the
better it is.

I know that with my post concussion syndrom I also had a neck problem and
that I also did a few weeks of physical therapy and that was one of the things that helped me the most.

I would recommend having her rest and sleep as much as possible. Taking it easy as much as she can. It something that will help a lot.
