A member asked:

Had a bad case of stomach flu. now neck is so stiff and sore and have shooting pain down right arm and can barely move it. is this serious?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

ER or Urgent Care: I would advise an ER or Urgent Care evaluation ASAP. While your symptoms may be from a pinched nerve in the neck, there is a chance this could be from meningitis. If you had vomiting and diarrhea, this is likely stomach flu, and your vomiting strained the muscles in your neck - you still could benefit from medical care. If you have had vomiting only, go to the ER for further testing ASAP.
