30 year old pregnant female with svt on 40 mg of sotalol/day. also have a reversed cervical curve. having pain where cartoid arteries are?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Probably ok: Carotodynia is an old fashioned term used to describe nonspecific aching in the carotid bulb region. Other than feeling uncomfortable there is probably no serious repercussions. If visual changes, speech changes, or motor deficits are occurring then the discomfort needs to be checked out immediately by a local physician. Otherwise i would observe and not treat. Good luck with your pregnancy!
