Carotidynia could be causing neck pain
The pain is typically dull, throbbing, continuous, and localized over the area high in the front of the neck where you can feel your pulse in the carotid artery. The pain may radiate to the jaw, cheek, eye, or ear on the same side. Symptoms are frequently made worse by swallowing, chewing, and moving the head to the opposite side. The main physical sign is tenderness when the carotid artery is pressed. Sometimes, there is prominence or throbbing of the carotid pulse. Although several serious conditions should be excluded, most cases are not dangerous. Severity varies from mild to agonizing. A history of migraine headaches may be present. In other cases, a history of previous sore throat, upper respiratory infection, oral conditions, or recent dental procedures is reported.
