Hi guys i hope you are all well. Just a post about my only symptom.. The headache and neck pain. I have had pcs for 4 months... All my other symptoms have subsided but im still left with a debilitating headache that varies with intensity during the day. Any tips advice or wisdom on this???? Im also thinking that my symptoms may be due to neck pain?? And once i cure that the headache will go away??

Thoughts..

I'm in the same boat as you. 2, almost 3 months, and now I'm just getting headaches. I'm thinking of trying a chiropractor or massage therapist this week.

Have you tried icing yet?

Hi Peter,

Have you gotten any treatment for your neck pain?

I had whiplash many years ago and had a headache for about 2 months until the physio and massage therapy improved my neck problems. No concussion or PCS at that time.

I've had a headache since my car accident on Oct 9th. It is improving - partly with ice and with physio and massage therapy. It still gets worse when I am overstimulated or tired.

Hope something works for you soon.

Hi all.. I went to the chiro about a month ago.. Got x rays... My c1 and c2 are out of alignment i have been getting manipulated 3x a week since then... Some improvement but its barley noticable.. Where do i go here???

Have you tried icing your neck? Especially after a chiro adjustment.

Chiro 3 x a week sounds like a bit much, especially if you are not seeing a dramatic improvement after 4 weeks x 3.

If your chiro is not telling you to ice after an adjustment, he is missing the most important part. You need to decrease the inflammation if you want the misalignment to heal.
