Hey i had a seizure 3 months ago and fell out of a chair. I hit my head on the table and lets just say i didn't look good afterwards haha. But ever since then, my neck has been hurting a lot. A couple of days later I went to the hospital for some x-rays and they gave me a neck-brace which i wore for a while. The results from the x-rays showed nothing abnormal. But my neck still hurts a lot when i tilt my head or turn it far to the side. What do i do??

Chances are, you pulled a muscle. I did that recently. My neck has been cracking funny when I turn it a certain way ever since. ;-) A535 is really good for it. :) Tiger balm, too. Actually, any hot rub for relaxing tense muscles should help... at least a bit.
