A member asked:
I was stretching and felt a pop in my neck. neck was stiff for a week. i get a pain in my back when i cough/swallow. can it b related? had a cough 2wk

Neck Pop: Although anything is possible, your symptoms are not likely to be related. Stiff neck and related "pop" are probably neck muscle strain. Pain in the back could be related to the cough. Probably not related to each other unless the coughing is quite violent with a lot of head movement.
