Dear Patient,

You can use topical analgesics like voltral gel that you can rub on your aching areas 2-3 times a day.
Use Molty back support cushion when sitting on your office chair and get a chair that's soft and height is adjustable so the computer is in line with your neck and you don't have to bend your neck down for use. You can also do warm compresses using a hot water bag.
