No matter what age you are, if you take good care of your neck now, you'll have fewer problems later. One way is to keep your neck muscles strong and flexible. Always consult your doctor for the diagnosis and treatment of osteoarthritis.
Treatment
How to Lose a Pain in the Neck
While the best relief for neck arthritis is rest , you can treat neck pain by applying ice to the area for 48-72 hours. Use a heating pad after that. Hot showers and baths may also provide relief.
Tips
Work Smarter
Practice good posture when using your computer and you can avoid unnecessary neck pain. Make sure the top of your monitor is even with the top of your head, and your upper body is 20-26 inches away from the screen.
