@lbass36 Welcome to Connect. I'm not a fan of neck injections either. One thing that may help post surgical pain is myofascial release therapy. You will have a significant amount of scar tissue that gets tight. This therapy may help. I have done this a lot with my PT and I am a cervical spine surgery patient.

Have you heard of MFR before?
