A member asked:

I have lupus and gerd i feel pressure on my neck no lumps but annoying feeling can not sleep should i go to er or how to manage it ?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

No ER: Er visits for a chronic issue like neck pain are inappropriate. See your doctor for this. Check your your rheumatologist if you are seeing one.
