How To Reduce Swelling At The Base Of Neck?
I have slight swelling at the base of neck above collar bones, not hard and does not hurt just noticed it this evening. I do have a c4 & c5 that has small compression that was from a car wreck 10 years ago. Should I do something to make the swelling go down, I can turn my head in both directions and it does not fell stiff.

Hello,
If you don't have any limitation of movement or pain in the swelling then no need to concern aboutit.
If swelling enlarges in size abruptly or there is pain while movement then visit surgeon immediately.
Take care.
