I am 31 with a fusion between C6-C7. My neck is sore all the time but I can live with it. I don't train as much as I used to but after my injury I thought I would never be back to rolling again and I was devastated. I have changed my style a lot in a way that I try to keep my head out of harms way as much as possible. No more shooting and no more being stubborn when defending chokes. I tap early and ofter even when I am not being choked but even if my opponent is cranking on the head or neck. I would say explore your options, start back slow and listen to your body. I have been where you are and am always happy to give advice or share experiences to keep you rolling buddy.
