What Causes Pain In Right Side Of Neck, From Shoulder To Head/forehead?

lately the right side of my neck has been hurting in the mornings and sometimes at the end of the day. The pain runs from my shoulder all the way up to the back of my head and sometimes into my forehead behind my eyes and into my nose. I just came off a round of antibiotics (about 2 weeks now) for a bacterial infection in my intestines. The pain in my neck usually subsides after I have gotten up and started moving around. I have a scratchy throat and seem to have some post nasal drip.

Hi. With the flu symptoms you might have a sinusitis (frontal) that causes headache in the forehead and behind eyes. General muscle aches can accompany this, and possibly not sleeping well can cause the neck pain. You need to have the post-nasal treated with appropriate antibiotics, and get a decongestant as well. Do add a probiotic to avoid upsetting your intestines again.
