Stiffness around the ear and neck without pain may be caused by muscle strain, poor posture, prolonged screen or mobile use, or occasionally issues with the jaw joint. You should consult your doctor for a physical examination to rule out any underlying cause. In the meantime, gentle neck stretching, warm compresses, and correcting posture may provide relief.

It is very common to experience joint pain and increased muscle stiffness after COVID-19. This viral infection can temporarily worsen your pre-existing spasticity from cerebral palsy and elevate inflammatory markers like CRP. Reassuringly, your D-Dimer of 317 is typically within a safe, normal range. Since you are already taking Etoshine MR and baclofen, please do not start new medications like Ecosprin without consulting your doctor first. Adding more medications can increase the risk of side effects or drug interactions. Your physician can help safely adjust your current treatment plan to manage these symptoms as you recover.

Continuous neck, shoulder, and back pain from poor posture is best managed with posture correction, regular breaks, gentle stretching, and heat therapy. Over-the-counter options include paracetamol or a short course of ibuprofen, if suitable, and herbal options like turmeric or magnesium supplements may help with muscle relaxation. If pain persists or worsens, please consult a doctor or physiotherapist.

This short-lived effect and the pain spreading when you bend or move suggest that the underlying muscle spasm or nerve irritation is highly active and needs a re-evaluation. Please avoid bending forward and try using warm compresses. I highly recommend reaching out to your doctor. They can safely adjust your treatment, discuss physical therapy, or suggest an imaging test to find the exact cause and get you lasting relief.

Yes, you can safely take Etoshine MR as a substitute for your prescribed Ezact MR. Both medications contain the exact same active generic ingredients: etoricoxib, which reduces pain and inflammation, and thiocolchicoside, which helps relax muscles. Because they are therapeutically identical, Etoshine MR will work the same way to help you feel better. Please just confirm with your pharmacist that the dosage strength of the Etoshine MR matches your original Ezact MR prescription.

You may take over-the-counter painkillers, such as paracetamol or ibuprofen, and apply a warm compress to the affected area. Rest in a comfortable position and avoid activities that strain your back. Gentle stretches, such as knee-to-chest exercises or pelvic tilts, along with short walks, can help improve mobility and reduce stiffness. If the pain does not improve, consult a doctor to rule out any serious underlying conditions and receive appropriate treatment.
