A member asked:

Was punched in the head last week and now feeling pain when turning my head. is this most likely to go away or could i have permenant neck damage?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Neck pain: If you had full range of nect movement, it is unlikely you will have a perminant damage. You should see your doctor and have neck x-rays. If nothing is amiss, a physical therapist can help.
