Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service. I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.

How old are you? If you having neck muscles spasm may feel like knot. occupational neuralgia may also present like this. Giddiness may be due to BPPV or vertebro basilar insufficiency or labyrinthitis etc. Until examination is done it is difficult to say what it is. other possibilities for giddiness like hypotension or hypoglycemia or anemia or cardiac problem etc. Avoid excessive elevation of head while sleeping, use tablet Vertin thrice a day for five days. If symptoms not improved please consult your orthopedician/ neurophysician they will examine and treat you accordingly.

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