There are many ways to heal a sore or stiff neck.The fastest is to go to the store and buy a neck brace and wear that at least three hours daily and as you sleep. Other ways are cold and hot pads, neck pillows when you sleep,and avoiding sitting in one spot for long periods of time(computers or gaming systems). On a personal level I know that pain is fixed by the brain.What food is it that feeds the brain the most nutrients?????? FISH FISH FISH....I usually will eat fish for lunch and dinner as i am taking vitamin c to help my immune system.I drink plenty of water to help my muscles calm or hydrate. But the most important thing that you can not do while having a stiff or sore neck is drink alcohol.Alcohol will numb the pain yes,but you twist your neck a lot when you are drunk which wil make it worse.

heat packs and massage is the general answer

and you may want to look at detoxifying your body with a lil sweating and excersie, as metabolic debris (toxins) are the main cause of stiff necks.

if the weather is hot, make sure you do not have air con or fan blowing directly onto your exposed neck during a sleep. as the cold air decreases blood flow and causes stiff necks too, a little fact not many people know about

Well first you must look at how or what caused your neck to be sore... try heat and if this does not work see a doctor.

I agree with the above answer, and I would suggest that if the neck pain does not go away make a doctor of chiropractic your first stop.

Treatment of a sore neck depends upon the diagnosis. Only a physician who knows your personal history can do this correctly. In the meantime, ice or heat is often recommended by doctors as helpful, as can NSAIDs - if they're not contraindicated etc. A sore neck can be a symptom of things that can be much more ominous however, which is why getting to your doctor quickly could be very important. Bottom line is to see your doctor for appropriate diagnosis and treatment of your condition.
