Can Neck Pain During Pregnancy Occur Due To Blood Clots?

Hi, I am pregnant and my neck has been throbbing on and off since last night. It feels like its inside my vein on the left side of my neck. I am worried that it is a blood clot. Since they run in my family history. I am 32 this is my second child and I am generally healthy. Never have high blood pressure or anything out of the ordinary. Please help my with suggestions? Am I over reacting? What would some of the other symptoms be for blood clots? Please any thoughts would be greatly appreciated....

well, I feel it could be just a weakness of neck muscles. are you using high pillows? if so kindly avoid it. sometimes using high pillows may lead to neck sprain. I recommend u to do some simple static neck exercises which will help you ease the symptom. if sill persists you can visit a physician.
