Brief Answer:
seems to be trauma or nerve compression.

Detailed Answer:

Hi,

I had gone through your question and understand your concerns that you are having pain in the front of the neck. I would like to ask you few more details.

Is there any history of fever or difficulty in swallowing?

Kindly get back to me with the details.


Based on your clinical details, it appears to be traumatic or due to nerve compression. It can be ruled out by ent examination and investigations like CT scan of neck and ultrasound neck. Hence, I request you to visit a ent surgeon who can examine and order the scan.

Mean time, you can take simple pain killer like tab. brufen 400mg twice daily.

Hope this answers your question, if you have additional questions or follow up questions then please do not hesitate in writing to us. I will be happy to answer your questions.

Wishing you good health.
