Prolonged Neck Pain

I have been suffering from neck pain for the past three weeks. Originally it started out down the middle of my neck–the spine area and when massaged, my neck would click and you could feel the bone moving.It’s onset was upon waking one morning, but it was a totally different feeling than when sleeping wrong… I now have neck stiffness on the whole left side and the pain started radiating down my left shoulder days ago, then down my arm and eventually a numbness/tingling in my left hand.Pain killers do not seem to help, nor does the massages or hot compresses…Any suggestions as to what could cause this (I’m only 28 btw) and how to rid the pain?

Tailbone Pain

(6 discussions)

I have noticed over the past month an occasional pain in the area of my tailbone, right at the top of by butt crack. It feels like a bruise, although I have no memory of injuring it. It comes and goes, and is usually more noticible at the end of the day. Nothing feels swollen or anything. A few months ago, a chiropractor told me that my hip was out of place, and re-adjusted it. Could this pain be due to my hip being out of place again?
