Popping Sensation In Head, Nausea, Shortness Of Breath, Lightheadedness. What Does It Mean?
So a few weeks ago I heard a light "pop" sound off in my head that sounded similar to someone snapping. Right after, I got a little light headed, short of breath, and nauseous for about a minute. Since then it's happened at least once a day. I had it happen in my neck once and I almost passed out but never again. I don't know if it's my veins/blood but if I'm getting all light headed and short of breath that's the only thing that would make sense right?

This is most commonly due to cervical spondilitis. In this the nerves in the neck get compressed due either ti herniated disc, bony deformations or both. U need to get an MRI neck with c spine to confirm th diagnosis
