Have a pain in neck that radiates to head and shoulder. feeling lightheaded past two nights. just don't feel right?

Muscle spasm?: Sometimes a strained muscle or tension can cause neck pain that radiates to the head. This can make you feel lightheaded. Try moist heat to the area, take Tylenol (acetaminophen) or ibuprofen. If it gets worse or does not improve in a couple of days, see a doctor .

Try OTC meds/see MD: You can try over the counter medication like ibuprofen or naproxen(aleve) and if it does not get better check with your doctor Most of the time it is due to musculoskeletal pain and gets referred to the head and shoulders and pain can make you feel light headed if not better in 48 hours see your doctor
