Left side of my neck hurts wen i lift weights?

Muscle strain: Old doctor joke. Patient: doc, it hurts whenever I do this. Doctor: then stop doing it. Technique is imperative when exercising as poor technique can lead to injury eg muscle strain. For mild pain, just avoid those movements that lead to pain. Rice or rest, ice, compression & elevation is reasonable if applicable. However, if pain persists or worsens or you lose strength/coordination, go c ur doc!
