I recently came to the ER because I had what I thought was a crook in my neck. They gave me muscle relaxers and pain meds because the swelling in my shoulders were noticeable and he said since it s soft tissue no X-ray was needed. Well I went home and the muscle relaxers helped my shoulders but I now have a knot on my lower part on my head on the right side and it aches from time to time but hurts when I turn to the right. What could it be? Should I go back to the ER? I have been lightheaded and weak, just want to lay down and that s far from the schedule and lifestyle habit I keep. I m always on the go and full of energy.
Hello, it is a common dysfunction in the muscle most the people have it due to the erratic lifestyle. We use a lot of electronic gadgets like phone, iPads, laptops or TV. we generally tend to forget that we are not in the right posture, which causes imbalance in your cervical and lumbar muscles, which in turn cause pain, numbness or any other symptom. If you can correct your posture in all your activities it can get rid of such problems. Would like to advise you meet a Physical therapist who can solve your problems and get back to your healthy and active lifestyle. Thank you
