I have been experiencing severe pain in my neck. I cannot move it from side to side or back to back with out resistance and sever pain. I also have pain down the center of my upper back which also affects my chest area. The pain pulsates with my heart beat, I guess spasms. Been in therapy with no success. The pains are also immediate onset with no prior warning and may last up to weeks. Sometimes it feels as if a bone is poking me from the inside.Thanks.
Hello, Although you have not mentioned your age and your occupation, the symptoms you have mentioned are possibly due to stiff neck which occurs due to cervical spasm secondary to disc prolapse. I would suggest you to undergo physiotherapy for pain relief and also to strengthen your cervical muscles. If the pain and stiffness still persists, then please consult a local orthopedic. Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
