What I found helpful was my doctor's suggestion to try a heat bag on the new aches in the neck and upper back. After applying a microwave wheat heat bag to the pain a couple of times a day, the pain there was very much reduced. The usual pain spots took longer to come good, with the medication being the only thing that improved them. Everyone is different, but something as simple as a heat bag can help in some cases.
