Low risk: The high-risk concern for stiff neck is meningitis, but other symptoms are typical. If you do not feel otherwise ill or disoriented, then you are low risk. Common causes for stiff neck are muscle strain or vertebral problems in the spine. For more personalized recommendations, consider a virtual consult with an online physician or discuss with your primary physician.
