Hello,

It seems you have anxiety issue. That is what is causing all the symptoms. The pop may have been a muscle catch that gets released with a pop.

Sometimes it gives a brief pain for seconds to minutes. However, the subsequent dizziness does not sound like a cervical problem.

I think this is all panic and anxiety. So, I would suggest you to relax. Whenever possible, do visit a neurologist for your possible cervical issues.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
Dr. Saumya Mittal
