What Causes Neck Discomfort And Severe Headache?
I have a feeling of a noose around my neck, then getting a severe headache. My current physician has me taking hydrocodeine for pain, but there s time when it doesn t seem to help. Right now I m not sure how much is in my checking account as I m on Social Security and need to pay some bills before I go spending too much.

Hydrocodone is a good option for Cervical Spondylitis but will be full of side effects like Constipation and possibility of addiction can't be ruled out too.
Try a different NSAID group of pain killer like Meloxicam or simple Brufen plus Paracetamol tabs. Also try to make a habit of sleeping without pillow under your head and don't use one when you're driving your car. Applying warm trusses may help too.
All the best.
