Doctor.  You don't want to mess around with a neck injury of any sort.

Fortunately it seems it's *finally* starting to get better.

(Fortunate because... well, have *you* tried getting hold of a doctor 
recently??)

actually get paid for treating you rather than getting paid for you

As I understand it, you also have to pay money if you actually want to

(Presumably if you have a serious medical problem, they just let you die.)

Fortunately, my problem isn't life-threatening. ;-)
