Neck Problems
A coworker of mine wanted me to ask you this question:
I have been having some neck problems for over some time now. My neck feels sitff and the back of my neck feels pressured, causing me to always move my head left to right and front to back. While doing this, my neck always makes a loud cracking noise. People have massaged my neck before and noticed a knot-like feeling in the back of my neck (like a deposit of some type). Is this normal?
I don't think I had any neck trauma happen to me. Maybe it was some habit that I had formed that causes me to rotate my neck which causes the knot-like build-up. What should I do? Can this get worse?

What Are the Symptoms of Tendinitis?
* Pain at the site of the tendon and surrounding area. Pain may be a gradual buildup or sudden and severe, especially if calcium deposits are present.
* Loss of motion in the shoulder, called "adhesive capsulitis" or frozen shoulder
How Can I Avoid Tendinitis?
When performing activities:
* Take it slow at first. Gradually build up your activity level.
* Use limited force and limited repetitions.
* Stop if unusual pain occurs. Do something else. Try again later and if pain recurs, stop that activity for the day.
How Is Tendinitis Treated?
Initial treatment includes:
* Avoiding activities that aggravate the problem
* Resting the injured area
* Icing the area the day of the injury
* Taking over-the-counter anti-inflammatory medicines
If the condition does not improve in a week, see your doctor. You may need more advanced treatments, including:
* Corticosteroid injections. Corticosteroids (often called "steroids ") are often used because they work quickly to decrease the inflammation and pain.
* Physical therapy. This can be very beneficial, especially for a "frozen shoulder." Physical therapy includes range of motion exercises and splinting (thumb, forearm, bands).
* Surgery. This is only rarely needed for severe problems not responding to other treatments

what do you think of this website i have ordered the dvd and book and just started tonight to do the exercices.
I have been having back pain for 4 years now.
ww.losethebackpain.com there is a 30 day return garantee if i do not see results in that period of time.
I will be sure to keep the people on this board posted on my progress and if it does work will post a complete rehab program that might be suitable to anyone that has to live with back pain.

i agree! low back pain is such a differing thing between people! it's usually not even caused by the same thing each time a person gets flares! i'd say keep with the stuff mentioned on the board before....usually those internet schemes end up being scams that arent ever approved by a person knowledgeable in it anyway! or, could just be some good stretches that you could read about in any fitness magazine! (or learn from anyone knowledgeable on this board!)
