Anyhow, prevention is the key and hope you find following checklists useful:

1. Exercise regularly to strengthen neck muscles
2. Improve posture - consciously sit up straight and tall, raise your chest, relax the shoulder
3. Use firm mattress and thin pillow
4. In order to turn around, do not twist your neck or the body; instead turn around by moving your feet first
5. Avoid the same position for periods while driving, watching TV, talking on the phone or working on computer
6. Do not lift heavy weight on neck or back
7. Avoid running and high impact aerobic
8. Manage stress level, when in pain, rest.
