Why Does My Neck Hurts During Heart Beats?
Why does my neck hurts when my heart beats, when I stand up? It's a pulsing type pain. It hurts when I touch my neck also or turn my neck from left to right. I've been having the pain for a few months and it's been progressively getting worse. I have not been sick lately so I do not suspect swollen lymph nodes. I am 5'11, 210 lbs. 29 female
