Would you hold it out far away from your body? No, you\u2019d bring it in close to your core so you could have a chance of being able to hold it for the full five minutes. He pointed out that it\u2019s better in this situation with your phone to hold your phone closer to your body. The more forward and down you move your head, the more pressure you put on the disks and muscles in your neck and upper back, so you should avoid doing that and instead put your head up, keep your shoulders back, and tuck in your chin. By bringing your phone up and over to you instead of pushing your neck and head down, you can <a href=\"http:\/\/docliens.com\/articles\/a-quick-stretch-to-relieve-neck-and-shoulder-pain-throughout-the-day\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">alleviate the neck pain<\/a> that comes with \u201ctech neck syndrome\u201d.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If you\u2019ve been injured in a car accident, this neck pain can become much more severe, and putting your head down while texting can add to your pre-existing injuries.
