Hospital? :?

If that's not necessary or you're for some reason opposed to going to the hospital, there's always Student Death Services...

I would wear a neck brace. You might get some sweet action from ladies with it. Just say you were base jumping and the parachutte gave you a wiplash or something.

I would go to a Chiropractor. I have been to this place once, and it was pretty good...

Yeah, Chiropractors are amazing. I used to have back trouble, and I thought Chiros were quack doctors, but this is not so. A few well-placed pops, shock muscle therapy, and after two visits I was cured.

Of course, this was in O'Fallon, no telling who you'll find here.

I would go to student death first, they will probably recommend an X-ray (which is free for you). Actual doctors are in tomorrow afternoon. I would avoid them if the diagnosis is serious, as they mis-diagnosed a foot injury I had from running (sprained tendon) as a simple problem and told me to "not run for a few weeks". I only recently found out what was really wrong after going to an orthopedist who knew what to do to get it to heal, and now my foot is back on the way to recovery.

I should add that a neck injury could be pretty serious, and you should definetly get it looked at, even if it is only by student death. If something is actually messed up, and you just kinda wait for it to "feel better", you could get some permanent damage in your neck if it heals in an odd way. Much better to just get it looked at, and have to tell your parents you hurt it "wrestling", than to have neck problems for the rest of your life.

Aren't real doctors in Student Death at 8 am and 4 pm every weekday (get there early, you will probably still have to wait)?

Not sure, but I know they are in on Friday afternoon for sure. I think it is staffed by just nurses most of the time.

That's correct (unless things have changed recently)...

On Fridays there is one there from 12-2, I believe. At least there was two weeks ago.

there are "real" doctors there usually twice a day.
call or go by to find out when & make an appointment.
if there aren't any patients waiting for them, the doctor leaves.

I went there last Friday, and the Dr was excellent. The people behind me probably hated her, but she was very thorough.
