Here is food for thought:
I recently had a kink below my neck. It sort of 'came on' over a period of about 2 hours late one morning. I made a point to hydrate, etc. It seemed that this kink was just getting worse no matter what I did, including massage, moving, everything. It was worse after another night's sleep.
I noticed the second day that I was craving mayonnaise. (I know, you hate mayonnaise.) I got a spoon and indulged that craving. I didn't quite eat enough that I felt satisfied. But, lo and behold, over the next couple of hours, I noticed that the neck pain was easing! I wasn't doing anything at all for it. So I had a little more, thinking I would eat it until I felt I'd had enough. (About 1 tablespoon in, I was done.) The pain eased a little more. So now I had about 20% of the pain, which I could live with.
Now this had my attention. I noticed that I was also craving black tea. I made a cup of tea (though it usually keeps me awake) and just continued to feel better in other ways. The next day, the pain was almost completely gone.
Am I recommending mayonnaise for your neck kink? Of course not. But I am recommending a little check-in. Just ask yourself: Is there anything I'm craving? Then give it a try.
(Disclaimer: if you're an alcoholic and craving bourbon, don't blame me if you opt to fall off the wagon...)
