A member asked:
Hit my neck pretty hard on a table right over right side caroited artery last night. feeling pressure sensation. could be be damaged or "dissection"?

Doubtful: A carotid dissection is a true medical emergency with severe symptoms- which you do not have. The pressure sensation is probably due to neck bruising. Get checked by your physician.
