Did the chiro harm my vertebral artery ?
I had undergone chiropractic neck treatment 2 months ago. The chiropractor used to twist and pop my neck 3 times in a week for 4 weeks. In the last week of the treatment, he twisted my neck forcefully to hear the pops. Since then, I have pain in my neck muscles on one side. It's a sharp pain that is always present sometimes less sometimes more and gets aggravated with wrong sleeping positions .
I however am not sure if the pain is because of the chiropractic treatment because I started yoga during that time and suspect pulled muscle in my neck. I am confused . I also feel the pain radiating in the back of my head and forehead sometimes. Can the muscle pain radiate in the back of the head? I am scared the chiro has harmed my vertebral artery and scared of making things worse. I don't have any dizziness though just constant stabbing pain in my neck muscle that increases and decreases with certain sleeping positions. I am taking painkillers currently and it helped somewhat. My GP wont take me seriously because he thinks i am overly anxious. I haven't gone to him yet but I know how his response would be. What should I do about this problem ? Any suggestions?
