Trapped nerve in the neck.  Have you lifted anything heavy?

Yes carrying shopping up to the house,and my job is lifting and helping people to move positions.xxx

Could you wear a support belt when not working?

[[email protected]]

Yes I could. What sort of support belt would I go for? Thank  you for replying xx

[CLKD]

I had one which was specially measured in an Orthopaedic Clinic.  If you are lifting people then you should have a Risk Assessment from the Company who is paying you.   They should also have shown you how to lift correctly and one should never lift a person alone unless they can assist safely.

Maybe go along to your local physiotherapist or a good Gym Clinic for advice on lifting, posture, foot wear advice.  Learning to breath correctly can help in between clients.  How is the seat in your car for example, comfy.?
