spinal neck area in pain

[oso0690]

Sort of. Does anybody ever have a pain in the back of their neck? Sometimes I'll wake up in the morning and there's no way i can stand up straight and look down at my toes, and sometimes it likes to last the entire day. It feels like I'll pull something in my neck/head if I look too far downward. Is this normal or is something wrong?

It's definitely not normal, and if it isn't one of those things that bothers you for a day or two, then goes away, you should get it checked out. It can be caused by anything from lifting form to the way you sleep to an A/C or fan blowing on you for extended periods, or anything else under the sun.

But, seriously, it's not normal to experience discomfort like that, it isn't necessarily serious, and it most likely is nothing to be concerned with, but I'd go get it checked out if it isn't getting better with rest.

Wow, BiggT you're great. lmao I have a fan blow on me all through out while I'm sleeping since 72 F for sleeping doesn't cut it for me. I would've never guessed a fan for extended periods of time would do that. I don't go under the sun, and my lifting form should be somewhat well enough not to cause problems (so I think). I'm guessing maybe you had a fan on you for extended periods of time or something? lol

Man...I need it ICE cold to sleep, but I learned the hard way not to have cold air blowing directly against my body all night.....adjust the fan and I bet your neck pain goes away, lol
