Please help! i have this electric shock feeling in the back of my neck and it shoots up to the top of my head. what is it?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
MULTIPLE CAUSES.: Most serious ican think of is pinched nerve but very unlikely. Atypical migraine-unlikely if daily. Arthritis in neck-would expect more non electric pain. How long have you had it? Does your head feel like being squeezed? Getting better or worse? Do not anticipate anything serious but visit to pcp should help ease your concern.
