I can't believe how I feel right now. I had pain in the neck and shoulder for 2 weeks. Did this exercise for couple of minutes and can feel instant relief. Thank you very much!!!! 😊
My doctor recommended taking pain killer shots and he didn't think there is any exercise that can relieve me from this pain. These exercises were amazing. I will make him watch these now! Thank you!
Absolutely!! Please do, I was given the same bs! And have been in pain for years/ today by God’s grace found this video/ and I’m blown away!!!On how fast it worked to relieve the pain/ 🥲
I tried this in the morning before work.. I work on a sit down mower for 6+ hours constantly moving my arms back and forth.. let me tell you, this worked !!!!!
No Joke..was at the doctors waiting to get treatment..the wait was so long and pain unbearable, checked RUclips..found this video..walked out of the clinic without seeing the doctor 😅...Thank you
Almost tears of relief rubbing a ball into that trapezium or what ever it's called.. I can't believe how emotional a bit of realease of that tightness is.. Just amazing.. And such a simple thing
As a woman, obsessed with work, I tend to leave things until the pain is so bad it stops me working. My posture has deteriorated in the last year or so, and I was aware of pain at the base of my skull and upper shoulder. Recently I found it difficult to sleep. Touching the muscles caused major pain, on the scale, definitely at the 9. Husband suggested a massage to work through those knots, but I could barely put my own fingers on them without flinching, so no way would I allow anyone else to touch them. Turned to good old YT, and found you. In less than 5 mins, I found I could touch my shoulder muscles and my neck was feeling relief. Now, I realise all this has done is give me instant relief (yay,) and I now need to sort my posture out, but I cannot thank you enough. I feel I can easily incorporate your suggestions into my day. Thank you so much❤ am about to watch your vid on hips now😊
I have unbearable pain in my shoulder and neck for two weeks and was finally desperate to find solutions and i found this. I did the exercises one time with the help of a neck traction i bought off of amazon and the pain was gone the next morning!!!! There will be positions where i’ll feel the pain but it wasnt as bad as how it used to be. Thank you for this video Dr. Rowe!!!! I will keep doing these exercises.
I can’t believe how well the first stretch worked. I’ve had a headache and neck pain for over 10 days and I instantly felt cracks and pops and immediate relief in my neck!
I just woke up with pain in the middle of the night and did these exercises it gave me so much relief thank you so much for making such amazing videos .
Sir, only few words, you are God send Angel. I was in unbelivable pain, just done this few excercises , it has done huge difference. May God give you long life to help the humanity.
You're brilliant. Love your explanation backed up by clear demonstrations. No annoying music and you don't waste time. Thank you. Easy to follow and you have helped me several times. Keep up the good work. 👍🏿 from UK 🇬🇧
I have dealt with these issues on my left side forever now. Woke up this morning after doing some of the stretches from a few of these videos and I don’t have that neck/shoulder ache like normal! I will continue to use these daily to stay loose! Thank you for the knowledge!
I think I hurt my shoulder while sleeping somehow. I move around alot and wake up in the weirdest positions. My pain has been here for months. If it wasn't for your videos I'd still be in pain. I felt relief so much. Thank you!!! Best on RUclips!
Came across this video, been having neck and shoulder cramps on and of for weeks, I didn't to use want muscle relaxers. I did the first part of the exercise and had relief, ! I felt the tension release, Thank you so much!
This is magical. I have been struggling with joint pains and almost everyday with shoulder pain which does not even let me feel well. I just followed all these steps only once just now and almost 70% pain is gone already. Thanks a lot for sharing such stuff.
My neck and shoulders hurt from carrying my backpack and they are always sore, and I was about to cry when I was done with the stretching, thank you so much😭♥️
I watched this awesome video twice to follow every step. They exercises are so effective and relieving. They are therapeutic! Thank you thank you thank you!
Thanks ! Without doing everything in the video I was feeling much better within 20 mins or so I'm 71 and still working in my shop but recently I have experienced a lot of pain in my shoulders and down into my arm . I intend to keep up with your program again Thanks ! Roger
I came back to thank you for this video. I am uninsured and have had pain in my shoulder for at least three months. I was beginning to think something was seriously wrong. Desperate, I came across your video and a huge difference was noticed after doing this one time. I have completed the stretches over the past two weeks about three times and I would estimate a 70% decrease in my pain. I rarely notice it whereas before most movements caused discomfort or pain. Thank you. Thank you. THANK YOU!
I have been suffering with neck pain in my right side for 7 months... I've tried everything to help it go away, I've almost given up. Your other video on this was really helpful, so I will try these exercises too daily, thank you for the upload!!!!!!!!!
Wow I finished the first stretch rn and it blows my mind how quickly I felt relief. I have been suffering for years with shoulder neck pain that gives me a headache. I’m just so grateful for your content!
I’ve had shoulder and neck pain for two days I couldn’t even sleep from the tightness, I came across this awesome video, tried the exercises in less than an hour my shoulder and neck doesn’t feel as tight and painful like it did 30 minutes ago. Im very thankful and will Keep exercising that area for strength and pain relief. Your awesome 👏🏽 😊
There is still pain but I felt bit of relief from the neck pain I am experiencing. I will alway do this. Thank you so much. 🙏 please continue doing videos. 🙏
How are you this good?!! Thank you so much for sharing. Fixed tension in my neck I'd had for weeks, and I'm going to keep doing the strengthening exercises!
I'm going to try to do these. My spine from the back of my head down to just below the beltline plays with me every day. Mostly by the afternoon my neck and shoulders hurt and when I'm getting up my lower back hurts, if I'm riding in a car and hit a bump, my back right below the ribcage and up into the shoulder blades about the height of my armpits sends me a shockwave of pain. My physical therapist said my entire back, especially along the spine is all knotted up and she worked hard on the trigger points and anywhere she found knot's at, she did her best to work them out. I've been doing anything I can, walking bending stooping down working in the yard to try and loosen up. Funny how I can be on my feet for the better part of the day and it's my Neck/Shoulders that hurts instead of my feet. I certainly appreciate You making these videos and I'm going to learn all the exercises I can learn from here in hopes to do away with as much pain as possible. Physical therapy only lasted a month, only what the insurance was willing to pay for in home care. You're a Answer to Prayer Dr.!!
I have had on and off neck and shoulder pain for weeks now due to uncomfortable seating in my uni..I've tried everything i possibly could but this few exercises gave me a lot of relief than i had in months. I have a exam to take up tomo and i feel much relieved from the pain that was distracting me all these weeks. Thank you very much for this.
I’ve been suffering from neck and shoulder pain for the long time. I’ve always had a massage therapy for at least 2-4 times in a 2-week span. When I started trying these 2 stretches, I inmediately felt relief. I saved your video and I’ll do this everyday. Thank you.
This is great! I instantly felt relief . I didn't think exercises and stretches would work. I was at the point from experiencing dull and sharp pains on and off for 2 weeks, I would try anything. My doctor at the VA prescribed 3 different pain meds that hardly worked. Thank God I came across this video! Thank you so much!!!
Thank you, as the first exercise you demonstrated offered relief literally within minutes. Will follow your routine to help manage what appears to be related to poor sleeping habits and strain when using mobile devices or reading in bed. Good stuff!
I got injured while doing yoga and done this twice and can’t believe how effective these are! I heard a slight cracking sound while doing neck stretches and an instant relief right after that! Finally the pain got a lot better and i can move my arm and neck right now after months. Thank you so much. I’ll be following other videos and techniques as well.
I have been fighting neck and shoulder tightness for about a week… I’ve used prescription muscle relaxers, NSAIDS, yoga moves, and a massage wand. Your stretching technique fixed me after about a minute on each side. THANK YOU!! If I lived in MI, I’d be a patient quick fast and in a hurry ❤
I have been suffering with this pain for a couple of weeks I am going to try these and come back in a couple of weeks for answers if not questions, thanks doc for the plan.
This is helping my neck pain so much!!!! I've had 2 surgeries to fuse 4 of my vertebra and the pain never went away. This exercise just made it almost disappear after 1 try! Oh my God thank you!
@@DrRowe thank you. I've had my 4,5,6 and 7th vertebra fused for this pain and in all of the physical therapy I've done they never showed me those 2 exercises. Just the one to strengthen the back muscles you showed here. Do you take patients? I'm only about 1 1/2 hours north of you.
@@nemesisy it definitely helps but with me it hasn't gone away completely. My neck is really messed up so I don't think I will ever find a 100% cure. That being said, it has helped me immensely! There are days when it is worse... If I look down to long or have poor posture while sitting. Those 2 aggravate it the most. Then my neck pain intensifies. That's when these exercises help I feel. I was having the most pain in my left sind neck to left lower shoulder blade area.. I was also getting hot spots of intense pain if touched all up and down my spine but in random locations. Sone times upper, sometimes lower or a mix of the two along the spine. For those, having my wife use her elbow to put some weight on them made those go away temporarily. One thing these exercises in this video have done is eliminate those hot spot issues and I haven't had an incident of the pain moving down to my shoulder blade like in the past. I also just started physical therapy again here a few weeks ago as it's been since 2018 since the last time I had any PT work. One of the things the therapist did on me is a treatment called "Dry Needling". I have never had that done before and it helped a bit. I was skeptical about trying it and my insurance doesn't cover it. But its only $40 so I said what the heck and had her do it. I got immediate results and was able to turn to the left an extra 10 degrees. I had less movement to the left than the right before, and after that 1st dry needing treatment. I was even side to side turning! After about 5-6 days though it went back to where it was before that. Sadly the 2nd time I it done, it only lasted maybe a day & half? Like I said my neck is pretty messed up. It's always random... What I have found works the best is a combination of everything. Some days are better than others. These exercises in this video, along with the neck injections I get every 3-4 months and that 1st dry needling have been the best for me. I'm due for another neck injection here soon so the pain had been increasing but thats where these exercises help the best. If you have any other questions, just ask. I'll try and help with whatever I can. I wish you luck!
Thank you for the videos. They have been helpful. For this particular video, I especially like the one that starts at 5.54 (Shrugging lift-off). I modify it by positioning my head at different angles, thus targeting various spots, giving different muscles a good stretch.
Thank you so much Dr. Rowe you have given me relief from pain. You are amazing! I wish you were here with me to be my own personal doctor. But the relief you give us here is the next best thing. Thank you so much for sharing your expertise.
I spent £75 on a physiotherapist who gave me exercises that did nothing. This video has given me instant relief! I can really feel the exercises hitting the problem areas. Thank you so much!
I love your videos! I am a Nurse Practitioner in Florida and I have used them for myself and I am constantly referring patients to your channel ! Thank you!!
I do the "armpit sniffer" stretch daily (since you mentioned it in another video). It has helped release tension so I'm not in pain by the end of my workday. I'm going to try those strengthening tips!
After regaining my composure, I am commencing with today's segment of the marathon. You surely have a way of cracking me up! Thanks for "marking" the place I left off. You're a great RUclips partner!
I am so thankful for this video. I was experience an increase of pain in my next. First I came across your video for the psoas muscle and seeing how great that was I went to your page searching for next and shoulder. THANK YOU!!!
My pain was so severe I thought o was gonna have a heart attack. This is helping. I had no idea how these stretches could help. Anyone else have the pain reach up to the back of the ear/head?
I was so terrified and extremely saddened when I got this injury. All my workout progress to go down the drain... I got this injury from moving from top of the bar position to hanging position. My neck cinched, and the MRI showed nothing severe, just a bulge between my C4-C5. My nerves were on fire! and couldn't move my neck half an inch in any direction. After two weeks of literal rest all the nerve pain went away but my neck is so stiff. I'm so happy I found this video as it is the key thing in helping me relieve the stiffness (aches and tightness) and pain, and bring mobility back into my neck. It's my daily routine until I feel good enough to get back on to a pull up bar. I can't thank you enough for making this!
This guy is a genius An artist A godsend I had neck pains for 10 days Just did one rep of each exercise to get the hang of it and BAM! 80% of the pain is gone!
Omg!! Thanks!! The side stretches always make it worse for me but as soon as I did the wall stretch, then added my weight handles (like .5 lbs) made all the difference. I have been suffering with neck pain for soo long. Even the over door neck stretcher stopped working. I had immediate relief. I pray this will stop the headaches!!
Hello Doctor, I just wanted You to know, I've stopped watching the videos of those two older guys stealing your content and not giving credit. You deserve more recognition for helping people, thank You.
What I find is that I do something and this area gets triggered and tender. It usually takes about 7'-10 days to feel better . I'm trying to incorporate these tretches and exercises everyday.. I'm here because all I did to trigger it was put too heavy of a cross body purse .
Thank you so much! My left shoulder and neck muscles have been so tight. I have no idea what caused this, but it's been debilitating pain. This video helped me more than anything else. 🎉❤🎉
Eu fazendo os exercícios: Meu corpo não tem nada de força, me sinto um peixe fora dágua, era pra se sentir bem? ta doendo um pouco... Eu após os exercícios: Que tipo de magia é essa? Muito Obrigado pelos seus vídeos!
Dr. Rowe, thank you for sharing your thoughts and tips on relieving the neck and shoulder pain. I have tried your methods and good news, it they do work!!! I am saving this video and now you have a new Subscriber!
I've been having shoulder pain and tightness for years now. I've tried a lot of exercises, but none of them worked as well as this. Thank you so so much for this video!!!
Thank you so much. I had neck and shoulder pain on both sides for 3 weeks. Your exercises have really helped almost instantly. I would say after 4 hours it's 80% improved. 🎉 Many Blessings to you 🙏
My shoulder was hurting to bad into my neck as it often does but today it felt as though the pain was going to make me vommit so I asked good old doctor google and I saw this and did the stretches and I felt some relief this is the best I have felt all day Thank you for making this video
I have a very bad shoulder pain due to prolong siting Infront computer posture. This video help me get immediate relief, thanks for the wonderful video.
I've been having the headache on right side and the pain glides down my neck to top of my shoulder. I stumbled across this video and I cannot believe that in an instant the pain I've been suffering for almost a week now is gone in a few seconds!
Im from philippines. I searched a lot of videos here in youtube. Only your video really help me from my back-pain,neckpain and shoulder pain. Ive been suffering from more than 5 years. Thank you for your video sir 😊 you help me a lot. I will do this everyday after my work 😊😊😊
Pain over 30 years my back ,neck and the back of my head i suffer from anxiety, panic attacks taking narcos, muscle relaxers and sleeping pills. I try every single therapy but nothing. Your exercise help me to relax more . Thanks a lot
I have been watching this channel for awhile now and almost every video has helped me tremendously! Though I can't get relief from my upper trap muscle, to the upper neck. They won't release. I've iced, heat, stretched, worked out. Not sure what to do but I've watched other videos as well to help with stiff neck, shoulder pain, and traction with a towel. Not sure what to do. It's been weeks.
Mine has been years and nothing has ever helped me till I found Dr Mike's videos. I think it takes time and perseverance. Don't give up. Try as many exercises as you can and when you find those ones that you can feel working, do those more often. Set aside some time every day and really focus on these. I've been doing this for a few days now (also been adding these ones to an album on my channel called "Chiropractic", check it out if you like - I'm having the same issues). They're helping me so much, though I just pushed too hard today and now feel nauseous from the pain, I know it'll be better in 2 days, and if I don't overdo it and keep on, I am convinced he's going to heal these injuries over time. We didn't get to this point overnight, so find your patience and hold on. Keep at it!

This is great! I instantly felt relief . I didn't think exercises and stretches would work. I was at the point from experiencing dull and sharp pains on and off for 2 weeks, I would try anything. My doctor at the VA prescribed 3 different pain meds that hardly worked. Thank God I came across this video! Thank you so much!!!
Thank you, as the first exercise you demonstrated offered relief literally within minutes. Will follow your routine to help manage what appears to be related to poor sleeping habits and strain when using mobile devices or reading in bed. Good stuff!
Thanks for watching!

Healing with DMSO by Amanda Vomeller.
I got injured while doing yoga and done this twice and can’t believe how effective these are! I heard a slight cracking sound while doing neck stretches and an instant relief right after that! Finally the pain got a lot better and i can move my arm and neck right now after months. Thank you so much. I’ll be following other videos and techniques as well.
I have been fighting neck and shoulder tightness for about a week… I’ve used prescription muscle relaxers, NSAIDS, yoga moves, and a massage wand. Your stretching technique fixed me after about a minute on each side. THANK YOU!! If I lived in MI, I’d be a patient quick fast and in a hurry ❤
Glad you’re getting relief!

I have been suffering with this pain for a couple of weeks I am going to try these and come back in a couple of weeks for answers if not questions, thanks doc for the plan.
This is helping my neck pain so much!!!! I've had 2 surgeries to fuse 4 of my vertebra and the pain never went away. This exercise just made it almost disappear after 1 try!
Oh my God thank you!
So glad you found this video, and keep at the exercises!
@@DrRowe thank you. I've had my 4,5,6 and 7th vertebra fused for this pain and in all of the physical therapy I've done they never showed me those 2 exercises. Just the one to strengthen the back muscles you showed here.
Do you take patients? I'm only about 1 1/2 hours north of you.
@@jeffallen3382 does this make the pain go away forever? Cause I want mines to go away forever. Does this really work?
@@nemesisy it definitely helps but with me it hasn't gone away completely. My neck is really messed up so I don't think I will ever find a 100% cure.
That being said, it has helped me immensely! There are days when it is worse... If I look down to long or have poor posture while sitting. Those 2 aggravate it the most. Then my neck pain intensifies. That's when these exercises help I feel.
I was having the most pain in my left sind neck to left lower shoulder blade area.. I was also getting hot spots of intense pain if touched all up and down my spine but in random locations. Sone times upper, sometimes lower or a mix of the two along the spine. For those, having my wife use her elbow to put some weight on them made those go away temporarily.
One thing these exercises in this video have done is eliminate those hot spot issues and I haven't had an incident of the pain moving down to my shoulder blade like in the past.
I also just started physical therapy again here a few weeks ago as it's been since 2018 since the last time I had any PT work. One of the things the therapist did on me is a treatment called "Dry Needling". I have never had that done before and it helped a bit. I was skeptical about trying it and my insurance doesn't cover it. But its only $40 so I said what the heck and had her do it. I got immediate results and was able to turn to the left an extra 10 degrees. I had less movement to the left than the right before, and after that 1st dry needing treatment. I was even side to side turning!
After about 5-6 days though it went back to where it was before that. Sadly the 2nd time I it done, it only lasted maybe a day & half? Like I said my neck is pretty messed up. It's always random...
What I have found works the best is a combination of everything. Some days are better than others. These exercises in this video, along with the neck injections I get every 3-4 months and that 1st dry needling have been the best for me. I'm due for another neck injection here soon so the pain had been increasing but thats where these exercises help the best.
If you have any other questions, just ask. I'll try and help with whatever I can.
I wish you luck!
@@jeffallen3382 I think my neck has a pinched nerve. I wanna get this away forever I don’t like this
I'm so glad this page came up in my suggestions. thanks so much for the uploads ✌️
Thank you for the videos. They have been helpful. For this particular video, I especially like the one that starts at 5.54 (Shrugging lift-off). I modify it by positioning my head at different angles, thus targeting various spots, giving different muscles a good stretch.
Thanks for watching!
Thank you so much Dr. Rowe you have given me relief from pain. You are amazing! I wish you were here with me to be my own personal doctor. But the relief you give us here is the next best thing. Thank you so much for sharing your expertise.
Glad you're getting relief!
I spent £75 on a physiotherapist who gave me exercises that did nothing. This video has given me instant relief! I can really feel the exercises hitting the problem areas. Thank you so much!
Absolutely! Feel the same
Thank you so much I got instant relief from the pain.
Glad it helped!
Thank you so much for this. Needed this so much!! Lots of tense muscles from carrying my baby all day and hubby hates giving massage!
Glad it was helpful! Thanks for watching too.
I love your videos! I am a Nurse Practitioner in Florida and I have used them for myself and I am constantly referring patients to your channel
! Thank you!!
Thank you so much for sharing, I appreciate it!
I do the "armpit sniffer" stretch daily (since you mentioned it in another video). It has helped release tension so I'm not in pain by the end of my workday. I'm going to try those strengthening tips!
Definitely give the strengthening exercises a try, and I hope they help!

After regaining my composure, I am commencing with today's segment of the marathon. You surely have a way of cracking me up! Thanks for "marking" the place I left off. You're a great RUclips partner!
Here cuz slept wrong
I can't move my neck 😭
@@Sathariel9mmI can move my neck but hurts in any position, even at rest and when I lay on a pillow. My doctors are ass😂🥲
Happening to me right now 😭
@@thesaechaos206 happened to me this morning, does it feel/got better?
Same here
I am so thankful for this video. I was experience an increase of pain in my next. First I came across your video for the psoas muscle and seeing how great that was I went to your page searching for next and shoulder. THANK YOU!!!
Glad it helped! Thanks for watching too.
My pain was so severe I thought o was gonna have a heart attack. This is helping. I had no idea how these stretches could help. Anyone else have the pain reach up to the back of the ear/head?
I have my exams tomorrow and was having a pretty bad time with the neck-shoulder pain. This video helped me tremendously. Thank you so much.
Glad it helped!
This is part of my daily routine. I no longer suffer from neck and shoulder pain. Thank you!
That's wonderful!
Same here. Great video
Thank you so much. Just watched the video and followed the pain relief exercises. Felt much better instantly
Glad it helped!
The first stretch was so intense for me that i felt dizzy right after haha! The relief I feel is amazing!
Glad you’re getting relief!
I was so terrified and extremely saddened when I got this injury. All my workout progress to go down the drain... I got this injury from moving from top of the bar position to hanging position. My neck cinched, and the MRI showed nothing severe, just a bulge between my C4-C5. My nerves were on fire! and couldn't move my neck half an inch in any direction. After two weeks of literal rest all the nerve pain went away but my neck is so stiff. I'm so happy I found this video as it is the key thing in helping me relieve the stiffness (aches and tightness) and pain, and bring mobility back into my neck. It's my daily routine until I feel good enough to get back on to a pull up bar.
I can't thank you enough for making this!
This guy is a genius
An artist
A godsend
I had neck pains for 10 days
Just did one rep of each exercise to get the hang of it and BAM!
80% of the pain is gone!
That’s wonderful, keep at it!

Omg!! Thanks!! The side stretches always make it worse for me but as soon as I did the wall stretch, then added my weight handles (like .5 lbs) made all the difference. I have been suffering with neck pain for soo long. Even the over door neck stretcher stopped working. I had immediate relief. I pray this will stop the headaches!!
Glad to hear you're getting relief!
Hello Doctor, I just wanted You to know, I've stopped watching the videos of those two older guys stealing your content and not giving credit. You deserve more recognition for helping people, thank You.
Well thank you, and those two make some good videos too. Thanks for watching!
Dr Rowe is the best! Very clear precise instructions. In every video you always finish feeling a new person!! Thank you Sir!
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️👍
Well thank you, and thanks for watching!
I'm here because of my chunky baby never lets me put her down.
Omg did you find relief? Or the cause? I have been hurting for over a week and nothing I do is helping.
Me too
❤
same here
What I find is that I do something and this area gets triggered and tender. It usually takes about 7'-10 days to feel better . I'm trying to incorporate these tretches and exercises everyday.. I'm here because all I did to trigger it was put too heavy of a cross body purse .
Thank you so much! My left shoulder and neck muscles have been so tight. I have no idea what caused this, but it's been debilitating pain. This video helped me more than anything else. 🎉❤🎉
Eu fazendo os exercícios: Meu corpo não tem nada de força, me sinto um peixe fora dágua, era pra se sentir bem? ta doendo um pouco...
Eu após os exercícios: Que tipo de magia é essa?
Muito Obrigado pelos seus vídeos!

I am honestly grateful for your help. I wish I could do more than say thanks. You literally save my life.👏👏
Glad the exercises are helping you, and thanks for watching!
I have been watching this channel for awhile now and almost every video has helped me tremendously! Though I can't get relief from my upper trap muscle, to the upper neck. They won't release. I've iced, heat, stretched, worked out. Not sure what to do but I've watched other videos as well to help with stiff neck, shoulder pain, and traction with a towel. Not sure what to do. It's been weeks.
Mine has been years and nothing has ever helped me till I found Dr Mike's videos. I think it takes time and perseverance. Don't give up. Try as many exercises as you can and when you find those ones that you can feel working, do those more often. Set aside some time every day and really focus on these. I've been doing this for a few days now (also been adding these ones to an album on my channel called "Chiropractic", check it out if you like - I'm having the same issues). They're helping me so much, though I just pushed too hard today and now feel nauseous from the pain, I know it'll be better in 2 days, and if I don't overdo it and keep on, I am convinced he's going to heal these injuries over time. We didn't get to this point overnight, so find your patience and hold on. Keep at it!
This exercise vanishes my shoulder pain really thankyou sir..
Glad you're getting relief!
Same as the previous comment, The pain immediately went away, Thank you very much
Glad you're getting relief!
