What Could Cause Sudden, Sharp Burning Sensation With Severe Pain And Stiffness In Neck When Turned?
Sometimes when I turn my neck, there is a sudden sharp burning sensation and it hurts terribly for a few seconds. Almost like I've popped a cord in my neck. It stiffens right up like a charlie horse and takes a while to loosen up and relax. What causes this?

Hi
Went through your post understand your concern neck pain can interfere with day today work, you possibly are suffering from cervical spondylosis which is most cause of neck pain especially if your work involves neck bending, I would suggest you to get an x ray cervical spine done avoid neck bending and you can start sustained release pregablin 75mg once a day bed time.
