Had sprained my neck last Friday. Im almost fine now with little tinge in my neck when I try to move it left or right. I'm going out of station tomorrow and will be driving around 7 hours. I feel I should be fine but can you please suggest me some strong pain killer in case if I feel pain while driving? Currently I'm taking nucoxia mr8 twice a day.

Since you are you will be traveling for 7 hours I would like to give you some advice first take break after every one hour and keep hydrating and do stretch second make sure you wear collar for travel pillow to make your neck in a comfortable position Third apply ice pack or take one  pain patch along with you Do not use smartphones means texting while travelling Do not worry you will be fine few days but make sure you take proper care of your neck posture
