What Is The Cause Of Cough?

I coughed yesterday and a shooting pain when up the sides of my neck. Still have full range of motion. And my neck doesn't hurt at any other time. But every time I cough same shooting pain goes up the sides of my neck, lingers for a while then goes away.

thanks for asking your question
I completely understand your question
pain in neck associated with cough can be due to excessive coughing by which all the neck muscles get pulled and fatigued or it can be due to sores in the pharynx due to excessive coughing
u can apply some muscle relaxant and take an analgesic
if pain doesnt subside you can consult a physician
thanks/ regards
feel free to ask more questions
may god bless you with good health
