A member asked:

Sharp pain that went from my neck to the back of head while playing basketball trigger pain in my upper back? have kyphosis and 4 bulging disc in neck

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Hard to answer: This is hard to answer bass on the information given and not being able to examine you. Probably muscular but if indeed you do have four herniated discs it could be nerve root irritation. You should see your doctor for this.
