Patient's Query

Hi doctor,

I think I developed a muscle pull or nerve problem in the shoulder and neck area when I was doing leg raise in the gym on a bench. How to get cured?

Hi,

Welcome to icliniq.com.

From the complaints you had described, it sounds like a muscle pull. It is better to get examined by a doctor first to know the right diagnosis.

You might get relief from simple analgesic and muscle relaxant.
