Help with cervical colar
Bought a cervical colar and tried for first night. I am choking, coughing quite a bit. Loosened colar. Didn't help.
Plus side-it did keep my mouth closed, but, unlike mouth tape, when i was choking i could open it. This seems promising so I want to figure out how to choose a better collar.
I am thinking it may be too firm. Also maybe I measured my neck wrong.??? I have a long skinny neck. I measured height 4.5 inches. Highest i could buy was 3.5 inches, and now that feels too high. But maybe because it is too firm.???
Do you have suggestions on shopping for a different one? Can a softer collar keep my chin up?
