What Causes Crunching Sound In Neck Along With Pain And Dizziness?
I have a crunching sound in my neck, pain, dizziness, nausea, and feel like fainting. This condition occurs when I sleep on back, lay flat with neck unsupported, or in dentists chair with head lower than rest of body. In severe cases, nausea so bad I vomit, and accompanied with profuse sweating. Any idea?
