Hi doc,for the past week, I have been experiencing pain at the back and sides of my neck.am having no fever or anything else.am having trouble turning my head.when to hospital and doc couldn t feel and swelling. The pain started as if I had muscle fatigue.just at the back of my head but now it feels like something deep in my neck is swallen.was suspecting some throat infection. Was only given pain killers and deep heat but I feel its some type of infection
Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service. I have reviewed your query and here is my advice. If you do not have fever then infection in the body is less likely.Your problem could be due to cervical spondylosis which could be caused to weak muscles or overuse, incorrect posture.You can use cervical brace for support.Also analgesics help alleviate pain.Put warm compress for relief. Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
