Avatar f tn My husband keeps getting recurrent pain in his neck. He has had to go to the ER a few times and x-rays were normal. He went to the dr. yesterday and she gave him Flexeril and Ultram but they don't seem to help the pain. Tonight I put hot, wet washrags (making them hotter slowly) and after waiting about 15 minutes, rubbed ben-gay on his neck and shoulder muscles. He says 'if I could just crack my neck, I think it would feel allot better'.
Avatar m tn A van side swipped her mini-van and cause some severe neck damage. This damage cause constant pain in her neck, migrains, and some numbness. The treatment they prescribed was getting cold injections to the nerves in neck and head. She received three treatments over the past year with some short term relief of pain but always come back. Beside this treatment she been doing a routine of physiotherapy, deep tisse massage, water therapy with some relief but not enough.

Avatar f tn Over the last couple of weeks I have still had chest pain along with trouble swallowing food and some throat pain. I have also noticed over the past couple of weeks that I have a very large lump at the front of my neck that is very noticeable in size. Could this just be my goiter/nodule growing? Has anyone else experienced chest and/or throat pain?
Avatar n tn About 3 or 4 days ago I started getting pain starting on both sides of my neck, starting at my jaw line. It radiates down and into my shoulders. It's a kind of burning pain. Don't take any medications. When it happens it lasts a few minutes then stops but usually starts again right away, then stops totally.
Avatar f tn s been suffering from her neck cracking, she finds this very painful she discribes it as lightning in her neck or it cracking like when you crack a stick. She also suffers from neck pain at night she only has 1 small pillow but complains that her neck hurts and thinks it's because her heads been too high. I remember having the exact same promblem starting at the same age around 8years hers started at that age too. I remember not wanting to turn my head because I was scared of the pain.
Avatar n tn It occurred 7 years ago, and am still recovering. The pain from my neck to my finger tips can be terrible on some days. Fortunately, the surgery itself was not invasive. Small cut at the neck line, that is barely noticeable now. Recovery wasn't bad either, except for the pain in the arm. The surgeon did tell me, and continues to tell me, "it was nothing he did!" Thus, I don't know what happened! ;-( Drill the doctor with as many questions as you can.
1475344 tn?1287160429 Hi! Welcome to the Pain Management forum. Although we're not doctors we are all chronic pain patients. We support each other through advice based on our own experiences. Apparently you're doctor didn't listen. Try another one. Perhaps a neurologist or spinal specialist. You probably need a MRI. In the meantime, if this happened within the past 48 hours, you might try ice on it. If it's not that recent, use heat. And be judicious with the Ibuprofen.

Avatar f tn Now two months later the cold/flu symptoms have subsided and I now just feel dizzy all the time and my neck has become abnormally heavy, making it hard to hold my head up. The neck pain is the worst of it, I am waking up in the night having panic attacks of some sort. I find that when the pain gets worse I go numb, mainly my head and arms. I am currently under a lot of strain from my university workload and my part-time job.

Avatar n tn Hello Flomobl, Welcome to the Pain Management Forum. I am sorry but the information you provide is so limited that I have no suggestions. Where is the "dull very painful pain?" Does it occur at any other time? Have you consulted your PCP and if so what did he/she suspect?

Avatar m tn Hi, For the past couple of days, I've been having this ongoing neck & upper chest pain! It becomes really painful when I bend over. When I lie down it feels like I'm going to sufficate. When I'm talking, it becomes painful when I inhale & I have to pause & inhale slowly. It doesn't hurt when I swallow, only when I'm taking deep breaths! And when I'm taking deep breaths, it feel as if someone is choking me!
1797743 tn?1389213685 Hi...just curious...anybody else have chronic neck pain? I will be fine for a few weeks and then all of the sudden the back of my neck (cervical spine region) will start to ache for several days in a row. Almost like I've strained my neck or something. It comes and goes.

Avatar m tn My question is, can either of these cause a painful neck or back? My upper and lower back is in pain, and my neck is very painful – it has been gradually getting worse for a few months. Also, how likely is oral gonorrhea to go away on it’s own? Surely a throat / tonsil infection for 1 and a half years should have gone away? Thanks a lot for any answers.
