Cause For Sudden Pain In The Neck Of The Child?
my almost 4 year old has complained about a pain in the back of her neck which seems to occure maybe once a month for duration of 30 seconds. This episode makes her cry for the same duration and she stops. she has an MRI scheduled for October 17th, do you think it is something serious?

Hi dear,
I understand your concern. It seems she has not correct position of spinal cord. She should sit and walk properly.Use small pillow. I suggest
-Apply Diclofenac gel twice a day,rubber gently with massage.
-Do exercises for neck, back daily.
-Swimming.
-Compress with Camphora to affected area.
Hope it helps
Wishing your baby good helth
