A member asked:
Are the symptoms of a vertebral/carotid dissection immediate or do they present later? if later, how far? i cracked my neck like i always do but felt a new twinge/pain at skull base w some pain/dizziness that made an already existent headache worse?

Yes, usually within a brief time after a traumatic event, but may also present several weeks later, depending upon the extent of the original injury. Suggest a virtual consult here at HT (www.connect@healthtap.com).
