Does Constant Pain In Neck, Head And Shoulder Have Anything To Do With History Of Non-hodgkins Lymphoma?

I have had a more or less constant pain in the left side of my neck from my lower head to my shoulder for months. Nothing seems to help, not even a chiropractor. I ve tried Aspercreme, hot showers, and heating pads. I m having to take Advil or Alleve on a daily basis and even that does not take it away, just makes it tolerable. I would appreciate any help. I have had non-hodgkins lymphoma 2 years ago and my last PET scan was clear 3 months ago. Thanks

Hi, Welcome to Health care magic forum.
The pain in the neck is usually due to the hypertension, cervical spondylosis, anxiety, or may be due to the gap of the nonhodgekins glands formed while they are cleared from the neck.
I advise you to consult an orthopedic surgeon for diagnosis and treatment.you may need to have a MRI for diagnosis.
I usually prescribe to my patient with such symptoms neurotropic injections for 10 consecutive days, and then periodically.N.S.A.I.D s when ever there is pain.
Wishing for a quick and complete recovery. Thank you.
