What Causes Severe Sharp Pain In The Neck?

I have an odd neck pain, it doesnt actually hurt until I turn my neck wrong way or move too suddenly then it feels like I got electorcuted , I end up not moving for that moment as the pain is bad, its like I disloacted my neck temporaily, pain goes to front to ears sometimes, can bulimia cause this, i cant seem to do normal movements with my neck without getting that sharp pain anymore, this started about a week ago when I thought i slept the wrong way and it would go away

Orthopaedic Surgeon 's  Response
Hello,
You seem to have sprained your neck. This commonly occurs due to bad posture or improper sleeping positions. I would recommend you to use pain relieving gel (local application) along with hot fomentation. Please consult a physiotherapist for correcting your posture and also to strengthen your neck muscles,

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

Regards,
Dr. Santosh S Jeevannavar, Orthopedic Surgeon
