Common Questions and Answers about Pain neck swelling

Avatar f tn For the past 7 months I have been suffering from severe neck and shoulder pain, thought to be from mild DDD, fatique and swelling over clavicles near neck. What could this be? I have seen many doctors who upon examing the swelling say there is no mass there and not to worry about it. I worry about it very much, and suffer constantly in discomfort.
Avatar f tn I have constant and severe posterior neck pain. Also pain in both shoulders, some down both arms. I also have neck swelling on both sides of my neck at the bottom where shoulder meets the neck above the clavicles. I have been to many doctors and none can find anything wrong with me other than mild DDD at C6-7. I cannot continue to live in such pain, all meds I have tried do nothing. Any advise would be appreciated. I would especially like to know what could cause the swelling?
Avatar f tn I have now gone threw the entire course of ear drops and still having the symptoms of swelling in the neck with a little pain as well as a tender left lymph node. They are now referring my to the ENT here in town. Someone please help me ease my mind. Could it be that the infection is deeper than what the ear drops can reach and the reason for the swelling in my neck on that side and the left lymph node tender and swollen?
Avatar n tn I went to my chiropractor yesterday and got an adjustment. He examined my neck, found the swelling and suggested I see my GP. I have an appointment today. It's been 5 days. Massage won't work, it hurts too much. Thanks for all your advice.
697772 tn?1228060328 Two weeks after my sexual encouter, a terrible pain on the right side of my neck developed. My sore throat got worse one week after that neck pain. I also had this mild fever (37.3 C), nasal congestion, watery eyes and sneezing. All of my symptoms gradually disappeared in a few days, all except the nasal congestion and the neck pain. Five days later I was with a sore throat again and also productive cough, mild fever (37.3), nasal congestion and this neck pain that never disappeared.

Avatar f tn Don't know, but celiac disease can cause thyroid issues. I have celiac and have Hashimotot's thyroiditis. It caused a nodule near / on my Adams' apple. The doc did a FNA (fine needle aspiration) on it to determine the status. Pretty easy, he just stuck a small needle in the mass and send the sample for testing. No pain at all..
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.

666921 tn?1254990618 I have swelling at bottom of neck - sort of between clavicle and shoulder muscle - I have mild problems in cervical spine - the swelling isn't painful - it's sort of spongey, - has anyone else experienced this?
Avatar n tn I'd call the dr's exchange. It sounds like you need to get a direct dr's opinion on this one. If you can't call or don't care to do that, please go to the er. Complications do come up after this kind of surgery, so they won't be too surprised to see you (I know this first hand; the nurse's told me so when I had to go). It will be worth it, if only to put your mind at ease. Keep in touch.
Avatar n tn I underwent my first root canal 2 days ago..(molar) with I believe 3 roots. I've been on penicellin for 5 days due to pain and swelling in my neck just under the affected jaw line. From what I've read...the pain and neck swelling should be significantly subsiding by now..I'm on Vicodin ES every 4 hours but make it barely past 3 hours before extreme pain sets in. I've not used that tooth and have rested..along with taking ibuprofen for swelling etc...
Avatar f tn We took him to the vet and as we were waiting, we noticed a hard swelling in the left side of the neck (~3,5 cm in diameter), that for sure wasn't there the day before. The vet confirmed that he had fever (39,7C). The vet suspected that it was a trauma and it developed an abscess. They gave him three shots (antibiotics and anti-inflammatory). The next day the swelling seemed to be reduced a little, he ate and drunk water.
Avatar f tn Over the past couple of weeks the right side of my neck has started being painful around the thyroid area and now its swelling quite a lot also. I dont really feel any pronounce glands its just really the swelling around the base of the neck. I went to the doctors and asked him 2 take a look but he didnt even examine my neck and i had a scarf on so he would have been able 2 even see ... he just said its probably a bit of the flu and gave me some paracetamol.
Avatar f tn Yesterday, I started with my neck swelling and now my ear is huge and my face on that side is puffy. I am wondering if maybe I am coming down with something and since I don't have any lymph nodes in that area, maybe that is causing the swelling....does anyone have any idea what could be causing this? I really wish that I could have one year without having to worry about cancer! I certainly hope 2008 is going to get better! Thanks so much for any advice you can offer!
Avatar n tn i have a swelling on the left side of my neck just above my collarbone. It seems to get bigger during the day, as when i wake it is not there really. It is painless. I take thyroxine 75mg as i have been diagnosed with underative thyroid. Is this lump due to this? i thought a goitre would be central on the neck?
625520 tn?1221884676 I had thyroidectomy on Sept 10th, I am having swelling and headache goin up from back of neck. I have been back to my surgeon twice and he drained fluid from the swollen area and told me that the position I was in for the surgery can cause the problem in the back of my neck and head.
Avatar f tn I had the neck swelling and burning after RAI but about 12 hours after RAI. I was told it is the FT3 being high. Get the FT3, FT4 and TSH done....... You may still be a little Hyper and need anti-thyroid meds for a week or two. This isnt unsual with RAI. Sometimes the thyroid goes beserk from the RAI as it is a large dose of iodine going to your thyroid. Also if you find that the FT3 or FT4 is still high...a beta blocker would be the best thing until the symptoms start to be less severe.
Avatar f tn I had pain in a bottom tooth on the right hand side about a week ago but not a severe aching pain, it eventually went away. Yesterday I woke up & could feel minor swelling just under my neck which was painful to the point you can't touch it. This morning the entire right side of my cheek down into my jawline & neck is extremely swollen, about 3 times larger than normal & very very painful.
Avatar f tn Ok this sounds weird but under my big toe and second toe under the the skin of the ball of the foot it feels like there is fluid there. No pain, no swelling but it feels like a blister under the skin. Any ideas as to what it is. Was in a accident about 3 weeks ago, was rear ended nor major injuries just some spazzing muscles in neck and back. But this problem hasn't gone away yet.
Avatar n tn yes i have severe pain in my neck and sholder on my right side .and its causeing sever headaches.
