A member asked:
R pain in neck by artery. arm movements makes it feel like it pulls. ice can help occasionally. could it be artery...or something simple. been a week?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Muscle strain: Most likely trapezius muscle strain. Ice massage and stretching with OTC pain meds is what you need. Arterial pain does not get relieved with ice as well as Arterial pain does not give a sensation of pull. Do your neck stretches frequently to avoid it in future. Takes 2-3 weeks to resolve .
