I'm having this uncomfortable feeling in my neck, and it's been going on for about a month now. I talked to a doctor, and he gave me some medicine. It seemed to help at first, but then the discomfort came back the very next day. I'm a bit worried about what might be causing it and how to get lasting relief. Can you give me some advice or suggestions?
