Bad Neck Pain, Pulled A Muscle 9 Years Ago….?

I’ll keep this short as I can because I’m wondering what to do now.
I fell and pulled a muscle in my neck 9 years ago. I pulled it really bad and I couldn’t feel anything for 10mins or so when I fell. I simply fell on my butt walking down a hill.
I had pain for a long time, 2-3 months.
It comes back every once in a while.
About 4-5 years ago, I had x-rays done, MRI. Couldn’t find anything wrong so I got sent for Physical Therapy. Didn’t help.
Now, my pain is back. Oh it hurts SOOOO bad. I can barely function right now. (It can get worse so bad I can’t even move.) But anyways. My husband wants me to go back to the doctor.
Should I? I mean, what can they do? I had the xray and MRI, nothing found!
Also, my neck/spine bones seem to be pushing forward. When I had the xrays done 9 years ago, it had the curve in it. When I had the xrays 4 years ago, my neck was no longer having that curve. When I have a hump back as I get older?
Please any suggestions would be appreciated!

Severe Ankle Pain Began About 5 Yrs Ago. Ortho Doc Says 2 Bone Spurs Of The Archilles Tendon, What To Do Next?

The dr did not offer anything except physical therapy. I’ve done that, it helps, but the pain quickly returns. Is there some type of surgery to help? This has worsened to the point of waking me from deep sleep with pain. If it is touched (even brushed by the hem of slacks), I cringe with pain. Any feedback will be appreciated. I must make an aggressive decision soon. Thanks for the help.
