Question: i accidentally made a quick movement and i popped the side of the throat. will that cause problems?

Answered by Dr. Aaron Branch (17 minutes later)

Brief Answer:
This should not cause any problems

Detailed Answer:
Hello,
As long as you are not having pain, this should not be a concern. The popping sound could have been from tendons or ligaments rubbing over each other, but regardless of the cause, as long as you don't have pain, it should not cause any problems.

I hope that helps, please let me know if you have any other questions about that, and I would be glad to discuss it with you further.
Thanks.

i have some mild painful

Brief Answer:
Likely not a problem

Detailed Answer:
This is likely not a problem, but just to be sure, are you having any swelling or bruising in that area? Does turning the neck make the pain worse? How long ago did this happen? How old are you? Do you have any other medical conditions or are you on any medications? Where exactly is the neck pain?

Please let me know if you can provide more information to the questions above and I will follow up with you as soon as I can.
