A member asked:
Muscle pull/spasm top of shoulder that radiates to neck is causing me to feel out of balance. is this likely to lose balance?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Neck spasm: a disc herniation in the neck can cause the symptoms you're describing. Loss of balance can be a sign of spinal cord compression in your neck (myelopathy). If this persists you should get an mri of your cervical spine since this can be dangerous.
