I broke my C1 2 weeks ago, the break was half of the horseshoe, on my right side it was
broken crossways, I am in a hard collar and the doctor didnt give me hardly any information at all, Im afraid to even sneeze, after recieving a blow to the head I still walked all around, even moved my head back and forth trying to pop my neck, had no idea it was broke. I am extremely careful and will remain so, I am wanting to know the seriousness and if this collar is normal treatment.
