A member asked:

The muscle/joint right before the back of my neck hurts like crazy when i try to turn my head utmost left/up for > a week. is there a way i can fix?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Need a diagnosis : You need to see your physicianand get imaging to be certain you haven't broken anything. This could be pulled or torn tendon. You could also have a fractured bone in your neck. You need a medical evaluation to help clarify what is going on.
