A member asked:
My two year old son seems to have a stiff neck, no fever presently and although he is not lethargic, he doesn't seem himself. could this be serious?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Stiff neck: He may have a wry neck from sleeping in a wrong position. If it doesn't clear up in a day or two, consult your pediatrician another possibility are swollen lymph nodes following an upper respiratory infection.
