recover from my sprained neck

..and I’ve regained the full function of my neck. It sounds trivial but the amount of pain I endured becuase of this was nothing to joke about!

Not until today, I didn’t realize how this could be so painful. I sprained my neck while doing some mindless early morning stretching. The pain was instantaneous, like something snapped sending waves of pain from the base of my skull down to my spine. When it didn’t pass I drove myself (with much difficulty) to the clinic. The doc confirmed I pulled a muscle and that rest was the only way to go. Gave a bunch of pills including some stuff for the pain, but they only helped after the second intake.

Seriously, I am immobilized by the silliest things, but I figured there are worse kinds of pain. I just hope it’ll heal soon enough. Never realized just how important it is to have a well-functioning neck.. for sleeping, working, driving, etc. The things I learn the hard way.
