First I woke up with a sore throat and severe neck pain on both sides, then throughout the day I developed flu like symptoms (fever, chills, joint and muscle pain with continueing pain in my neck.) Does anybody have any idea? I would say flu but I never experienced a neck pain like this. Thanks.Jessica3210

There are certain viral strains that cause neck pain as well. One that we hear alot about these days is West Nile Virus carried by mosquitoes. You may want to research it on the web and see if it applies. At any rate, I would see a doctor and get diagnosed. Sometimes this can be an indication of a serious problem.

Hello can someone help me...

I woke up this morning with a sort of jump, and heard a snap or crack or something. And all day I have had this severe pain whenever I move my neck, should I be worried? Does anyone know any treatment that may decrease pain and provide ease? I have tried some master plaster spray for sprains but it didn't help. I have tried moving my head around it circles ect to exercise any muscle problems, at first I thought it was a ric in my neck but now I am not sure. I don't want to go to the doctors just yet in case it is something silly, as that would make someone who needs them more than I do, wait.

I am terming it the Neck Flu. I had an off and on headache that began this past Saturday evening, October 28,2006. Just Yesterday, the 31st, I began experiencing a little neck and shoulder pain on the right. My headaches pain seemed to be localized behind my right eye and right ear, very sharp and half nauseating. My face hurt like when you have a bad sinus infection, but I had no runny nose or stuffiness. I made an appointment with my chiropractor, and she made several adjustments. Yet, just today, it all seemed to be getting worse. I went back to my chiropractor, and when I began sharing with her some of my symptoms, she said that there was a virus going around that were giving people severe neck pain and swelling. It lasts usually 2 days, and does not seem to have a fever. It was difficult to even answer the phone when my sister-in-law called when I arrived home. When I explained what I was going through, she told me she had the same thing happen to her just a week or so ago. She was ready to make an emergency call to her chiropractor after the second day when she awoke on the third morning feeling completely fine. She said she had the mild sore throat, her feet hurt (Like I had experienced) and terrible headache and neck pain. I think it is important to note this seems to have a short life to it, and does not appear to be a serious threat to the healthy, even children. Her 6 year old daughter also had it, and my 4 year old has just tonight begun to complain of her arm hurting, and having a headache. Tylenol seems to relieve the pain, but it is worthy to note that this does seem to be seemingly what I would consider highly contagious. Hitting shortly before Halloween, I would not be surprised if this makes a large sweep in communities nationwide in the next several weeks.
