Oh crap. Neck injury? Advice from anyone bodybuilding or doing weightlifting?


Yesterday I was doing some shoulder shrugs - not exactly something I am new to as I have been doing it for over a year but as I was doing the shrugs using dumbbells I felt a sharp pain at the back of my neck. The pain is on the left side at the back, not in the middle and now I cannot turn my head to the left or face it upwards as it is too painful. What has happened and how do I deal with it? I plan on seeing the doc tomorrow.

you probably just pulled it. ice it and go get some medical attention.

Go see a doctor, my late ex-brother-in-law did the same thing and he ended up with a life threatening ailment meaning - he did strain his neck working out however little did he know that there was cancer developing (from his neck).
