What Causes Stiffness On Neck With Difficulty In Swallowing?
I woke this morning with a stiff neck which did not get better as the day wore on. Instead, it really hurt to swallow. I tried Advil with a little improvement, not much. I don t think I have fever. What should I be doing? Anything I should be taking? I tried alternating heat and cold with very little effect.
