A member asked:
I feel a shooting, numbing pain on the right side of my head right before something bad happens (ie. beverage spilling). am i more prone to stroke?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
No: You probably sprained the neck and the pain caused you to have something bad happen like spill the beer. Perhaps if you stop drinking you will remember when you hurt your neck.
