What Causes Painful Stiffness In The Nape Of The Neck While Having A Fever?
I just got over a 3 day bout of low grade fever, chills and body aches. No other symptoms. I now am experiencing pain at the base of the back of my head, my neck is stiff and it is painful to turn my head. I woke up all swollen-hands, lower leg and face. Sinuses?

What Causes Painful Stiffness In The Nape Of The Neck While Having A Fever?
Hi, It will be a simple myalgia associated with fever. As of now, you can take analgesics like Aceclofenac or Tramadol for pain relief. If symptoms persist better to consult a physician and get evaluated. Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further. Regards, Dr. Shinas Hussain, General & Family Physician
