In reply to Back of neck swollen and sore, posted by Joanie on January 30, 2003, at 10:38:36
Joanie, don't assume this sore neck & swelling on the back is the result of medication side effects. Go get a throat swab and/or blood test done. Too many times someone assumes their symptoms aren't worth checking out & they should've. Meningitis can cause a very stiff neck, so sore & stiff that it's very difficult, if not impossible, to touch your chin to your chest. Put your mind at ease & get it checked.
