Last night my son started complaining about neck pain... especially when turning or moving his head. I thought maybe he caught a chill or twisted it... This morning he woke up and is still complaining, pointing to the left side of his neck... it also hurts to lift his shoulders... I've been applying Menovazin and wrapped him in a scarf... maybe it's a virus, but he doesn't have a fever, his throat is a little red, and his nose seems clear... which doctor should I see, or will it get better on its own? Our pediatrician, to put it mildly, isn't very helpful... my son is an athlete, and he has competitions soon, so he needs to be in top shape.
Ladies, what do you think this could be... I woke up this morning and everything was fine, took my s… Went to the clinic with my son to give blood... it was the usual, a big queue, people getting confus…

The neurologist handles this issue for adults. Could we take the baby to them too?

With a virus, not every muscle aches... especially not the neck. I'm having the same issue as your son right now (though it's hard to treat me (

Feel your lymph nodes.
If everything is okay, then see a neurologist.

Are there any serious conditions where the neck feels stiff?

Suhareva Olga Is it meningitis? She lowers her head to her chest normally, even though it hurts

Should you see a trauma specialist? Maybe he moved suddenly? Or did he fall during a walk and not take it seriously?

Tatyana Anyone can get muscle stiffness or soreness from lying down too long.

Tatyana What's strange about it?
It could be a draft, a pinched nerve, or sleeping on it wrong... it can happen to anyone at any age.

Tatyana Yes, that's understandable. No fever... so I'm wondering if I should go to the doctor or not...

Tatyana It's not guaranteed there will be a fever. I think it's worth going.
