A member asked:
Swollen tonsils, fever, weak, pain all over body, but why severe neck pain?
5 doctors weighed in across 2 answers
Most likely pain : The pain most likely in this scenario is from enlarged and inflamed lymph nodes in your neck region and may also be muscular pain or myalgias that can accompany an infection, usually viral in origin. If persists or worsens see your doctor.

See doctor now: You should see a doctor right away. This may be just a viral infection but the severe neck pain, especially if it hurts to bend your neck or bend at the waist, may be a sign of meningitis. The risk of head and neck infections (like a tonsillar infection) is that it can spread up towards the brain.
