What Causes Acute Back Pain With Nausea?

Night before last I felt 'normal' - yesterday morning I awoke w/ a sharp pain in the back left side of my neck going down into my shoulder - increases much worse if I tilt in the other direction to far obviously - feel the same today; not any better. The pain is pretty strong if I move the wrong way; cause small waves of nausea. Could this amount of pain just be from one night's bad sleeping position or should I see someone?

Hi
Welcome to healhcaremagic
After going through your query I concluded that you may be having muscle spasms in neck. It may be related to sleeping in wrong position. Its treatment is rest and analgesic such as ibuprofen for pain relief. Vitamin B and C are helpful in recovery.
Second possibility is cervical disc prolapse. It can be confirmed by MRI of cervical spine. Its treatment is analgesic such as ibuprofen. Rest to neck and Mecobalamine is helpful. Keep the neck in as comfortable position as it can be kept.
You can discuss with your Doctor about it. Hope your query get answered. If you have any clarification then please don't hesitate to write to us. I will be happy to help you. Wishing you a good health.
Take care.
