Could Stiff And Painful Neck With Random Bubble Like Sensations Indicate Sciatica?

My husband is 37 and is a mechanic. He has minimal knowledge of his family history but we do know there is sciatica in the line. His neck is stiff and painful on the left side but close to the spine. He can feel a sensation like bubbles, randomly and sometimes when gently stretching. This has been going on since 4 days ago when he got home from work. We tried some pressure points and stretches but the pain remains. Is this something where he would visit a chiropractor? He s worried because a friend had something similar happen and now cannot walk.

HI
Well come to HCM
I really appreciate your concern, muscular spasm may be the likely cause and this is not the sciatica and no need to worry about, it can be managed with "Tab Chlorzoxazone with Acetaminophen" three times in day, hope this information helps, take care and have a nice day.
