I developed a shouder pain about 5 days ago. It has now crept up my neck and every now and then I have a dull ache on the right side of my head. Any ideas? It is not a constant pain, but I now have neck ache plus a minor shooting pain!

Since the pain has come on acutely, hopefully it'll go relatively soon too. I get something similar after long days driving, holding my hands up to the wheel for hours and hours. Or painting the ceiling. Or just sleeping awkwardly.

Whether or not you can identify the cause, do try some Atrogel. It begins to help after the first application in my experience and applied twice daily for just a couple of days should see you better.

I won't recommend the extras I do for other people (magnesium, Atrosan Devils Claw etc) as I think you have a temporary strain.

Best wishes
