I only believe that this is relevant because since than i have noticed this sensation of pressure on the left side of my neck, not sure if there noticeable distension. .wanted to get a second opinion before i went to the doc....
Thanks for your question on Chat Doctor. I can understand your concern. In my opinion, you should consult doctor and get done 1. Chest x-ray to rule out lung pathology. 2. Ultrasound examination of neck to rule out lymph node enlargement or other mass lesion. Lung infection and lung malignancy (if you are smoker) are common cause for chest pain and neck pain and distention. Chest x-ray is needed to rule out lung infection and lung malignancy. If both, chest x-ray and ultrasound are normal then no need to worry much. Painkiller and anti-inflammatory Chat Doctor.  Hope I have solved your query. Wish you good health. Thanks.
