Neck pain and help from orthopedic neck pillows

Woke up with some neck pain this morning. I usually sleep with this orthopedic neck pillow. Last night I skipped on it. I paid for it this morning because boy did my neck hurt. Well, I took some Ibuprofen and I put a heated microwave rice pack on it and now it is much better. Tonight I certainly will use that neck pillow. Those pillows really do work! It takes a bit to get used to it, but I sure have noticed no more upper shoulder or neck pain for the 5 months I used it. Now back to my day. Will do a few dishes and then just relax the rest of the day as I have a busy week coming up.
