Hey there Willy Wonka,

Almond larva aside....there are several causes for neck pain after walking. I was taught to walk properly years ago although I am not mindful generally of how I walk (and I do almost daily).

Your stride may be off...you may be taking a longer step with one leg than the other legs and this puts the muscles in your body out of alignment.

You may be looking down at the ground too much or slouching while walking.

Try keeping your head up and shoulders back. Don’t take long strides and try to keep them even (I see people who lunge when walking). Swing your arms (that kind of comes naturally).
Be mindful of your posture and walk almost in a military style..heel first....like you have a purpose , eyes straight ahead as much as possible. It’s not casual walking...it’s exercise and you don’t have to walk fast.

I find that way of walking very energetic and I lapse into casual walking if someone comes along and starts to chat.

PS...You ate enough chocolate for a week...shaking my finger at you from across the country.
