Thanks Christine & Cheryl. My husband has been doing stretching at home ever since he is back home from surgery. It is the 5th week after all treatment, he says he neck is even worse than before...this is frustrating. Christine's reply seems make sense that the radiation is working and making his neck even stiffer.

He will be seeing PT twice a week and hopefully this will make him feel better.

The strangled feeling maybe need some med help to relieve? I am thinking to schedule a visit with his surgeon soon and take a look inside his throat, hoping to prove something that med can help.
