A few hours ago, while washing hair when showering, I must have twisted my neck around weirdly. Felt a ‘pop’ sensation at the neck. It quickly became a pinching pain at the top of my throat, right side. The pinching is always painful, but especially when swallowing, talking, taking deep breath, eating and drinking, clearing throat, or even just moving around.
Please advise what could have happened. Could this be a muscle strain that just needs time to heal up by itself, or best to have my doctor check it, and possibly arrange for a scan.
I chose the closest Group, ‘head injury’, but ‘throat injury’ may be better.
Thank you.
