Dr. Harold Mandel answered

Specializes in General Practice

Get an exam: Because this has lasted for 3 days I strongly encourage you to get examined in a clinic as soon as possible. A complete history, lab studies and X-rays will be needed to help diagnose and properly treat your problem. A referral to a neurologist may also than be advisable. Please try to relax and get an exam as soon as possible.
