I am 14 years old, male. I am having some spondylolysis problem. It is there for about 6 years. Whenever I am having too much work in the daytime or I am out in the sun for some time then my head & neck starts to have immense pain. I can move my head & neck easily but the pain is always there. After taking a long sleep, the pain goes away, It even persists for 2 days even after sleeping. Please help me. What can I do?
