Suggest Treatment For Anxiety And Pain On Right Side Of The Neck
im a 24 year old female, mother of 2 toddlers. i have HIV but am undetectable and in "healthy normal range" for my age group. I recently had a pain in the right side of my neck that has "cleared up" but now and was told it could have been from a torn ligament due to my heavy bookbag (even though no one officially diagnosed or examined it, now i have this dull ache at the base of my skull. It isn't constant, but it is very concerning. i have full range of motion in my neck and am not sure what could be the cause of the pain. I am under a lot of stress between school, marriage and my children, along with fighting a bout of anxiety after the loss of my only brother... please help
