Suggest Treatment For Pain And Tenderness In Neck
have sharp constant pain for about a week in neck. It seems to be where my artery is on the right side. It hurts when I swallow but not in my throat. It is extremely tender to the touch. I am a 33 year old mother of a 2 year old. I am 5 foot 4 and weigh 136 pounds. This has never happened before.

Hello,
You need a detailed examination followed by ultrasound of the neck. We need to exclude infection such as abscess or inflammation of artery. In most cases, medical treatment would suffice.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Take care
Regards,
Dr. Sudhir Kumar
