Hi, I woke up with a really bad cold on Sunday and I still have it now. Yesterday morning, I went a little bit dizzy at the stop of the stairs in my house, I stepped to go down the first step but i managed to slip right down to the middle and I landed in a funny way. I had pain at the top of my back and at the sides of my neck and it seems to hurt more when I lay down and because I sleep on my left side, I m in discomfort, like a nagging pain. Even when I cough, breathe out and move my head, there s still pain there
Sorry you're feeling so bad as neck pain on top of a cold can be quite demoralizing. The dizziness is most probably a fall out of the cold you have and steam inhalation a thrice a day should help you. If it doesn't, I suggest a physician review where I am sure the medications like sturgeon or beta histamine would be prescribed. The neck pain seems more like a whiplash and for now bed rest and a mild painkiller like paracetamol should do the trick. A cold compress on the neck would help too. If thing don't get better in a couple of days, physical therapy maybe needed I hope you feel better soon
