I was jumping rope and my neck made a weird cracking sound and it hurts a lot. ( back of my neck left side) what cand i do to cease the pain?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Hot compress: Ibuprofen and lay still in neutral position when you go to bed. The spasm will go away. The cracking sound was from the joints between the neck bones. Should go away on it's own.
