I ve been sleeping with the fan blowing, i wake up with a stiff neck. is it bad on the joints can t turn head without pain, what?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
No it is not but it : Maybe related to the muscles feeling tight or stiff but it is not harmful toneck or your joints. If your neck is painful and it persists even without exposing it to a fan at night then see your physician for a diagnosis and recommendations especially to make sure it is not related to swollen glands due to an infection.
