Ma Kuang: A redditor recommended Ma Kuang, noting their positive experience with acupuncture for a pulled metatarsal tendon. They mentioned branches in Jurong East and Clementi. "Ma Kuang is pretty good. I went to their Bedok branch for my pulled metatarsal tendon. One session of acupuncture healed it 80% by the next morning. I believe they have branches in Jurong East and Clementi."

Upper Body Exercises: Another redditor suggested doing upper body exercises involving the neck, shoulders, and back to help with chronic pain. "Also doing upper body exercise involving neck shoulders and back helps a lot. At least it fixed my chronic neck/back pain with deadman hang and cat streching."
Neck Mobility: A redditor who had thyroid surgery emphasized the importance of moving the neck regularly to reduce stiffness and pain. "It helps to try to move the neck, keeping it fixed all day in the same place hurts more."

Laptop Stand and Eye Level: Ensuring proper posture and using a laptop stand can help prevent neck and shoulder pain. "Check if it is due to poor posture or how your laptop is used. Do you have laptop stand, eye level, slouching etc"

Steroids for Nerve Inflammation: A redditor found relief from severe neck pain due to nerve inflammation by taking oral steroids. "It’s a nerve inflammation and it was gone from the first day I was given steroids (medrol, cortisone)"
Chiropractic Care: Some redditors have sought help from chiropractors for neck issues, which can sometimes be linked to TMJ. "I found at that the atlas bone in my neck was out of place when my tmj doctor suggested I see a chiropractor because I was still in a lot of pain"
