    No...there is no such thing as blocking nerves in the neck...there are surgeries but these usually involve discectomy or fusion. Best to exercise and strengthen the neck..water therapy/swimming and strength training will help the pain subside but you must be diligent. It takes time. Painkillers only get rid of about 30% of pain so it is easy to get hooked on taking too many but then you are high and just don't care about the pain...so managing meds is a good idea...see a pain specialist if you must and avoid street drugs and self-medicating as that will get you in a pickle for sure...see a good Doctor for bad pain !!
