A member asked:
Ive been sick with virus, bronichitis over a month but feeling better, however neck pain/stiff has worsened recently. can that be from the virus?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Yes, if you are: coughing a lot, the neck muscles can be strained. If you are having any change in sensation in your arms or having changes in your thinking, it could be more serious and a doctor visit would be in order
