No: There can be small vitreous floaters at the periphery of your vision that are normally not noticed.If you have to look a long time, you may succeed in some cases in reducing the blood supply to your eyes or brain sufficiently to see spots. If you see flashing lights, many new spots, or a dark curtain coming over your vision, those can be signs of retinal detachment requiring a visit to your eye md.

Poor profusion: Transient spots associated with twisting of the neck sounds like decreased profusion to the visual cortex. With difficulty opening jaw it is possible there is underlying problem with tight muscles from magnesium deficiency. Topical magnesium oil, heat and stretching might remove the underlying imbalance.
