What Causes Pain In Neck Radiating To Ear And Shoulder Blade?

I have severe pain on the right side of my neck extending from just behind the middle of my ear down to my shoulder blade area but the worst is in my neck area. In addition any time I move my head up down left or right the vertebrae in my neck pop like 5 pops sequentially also a lot of difficulty turning my head to the right.

Hello,

The symptoms seem to be related to a muscle strain. I recommend using a muscle relaxant such as Baclofen three times a day. I also suggest using warm compresses for local application.

Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
Dr. Dorina Gurabardhi, General & Family Physician
