Not good.
I have this awful pain in my neck that doesn't seem to go away. I first noticed it a week ago, and thought I must've slept in a shitty position, but it has since only gotten worse. Due to holidays I was unable to get a doctors appointment until next week.
Sure, I have a shitty seating position when on my PC, but I've had that for 25 years without a problem. Nothing changed last week, so I have no idea what's causing this.
In the meantime, paracetamol helps.
You should probably get a neck X-ray to ensure you don't have a vertebrae fracture.
I'm just having a hard time imagining how I would have contracted such a fracture. Plus the pain is more muscular.
You can have burst fractures due to osteoporosis.
