This is exactly what is happening me recently.. I figured because I'm a singer it had something to with that but it is random when it hits.. It's like someone pinching a nerve in my neck...

I'm only 15 and I started experiencing this pain yesturday when I was studying and it hasn't gone away could it be the same thing that y'all have. There is no lump. And the spot the hurts it where my neck vein is. It only hurts when I swallow or lift my head up or to the left. This has never happened before and it doesn't seem to hurt less each passing hour.

Just stumbled across your post and you've described my symptoms, frustration and concern with eerily similar details. PLEASE let me know if you've found any answers.

I had this for six months. Turned out I had cat scratch fever. I had flu like symptoms that were on and off for months. When I took antibiotics they would go away briefly but because they weren't the right type for CSF it would always come back. For the record I was never scratched by a cat but got infected from rimubbibg my eye after striking a cat. Good luck. L x

Hi there, I have the similar symptoms. I'm curious if everyone with this problem sleeps on the left side or uses a contoured memory foam pillow?

Yes, I have this issue and I also have a contoured memory foam pillow as well as sleep on my left side and often times on my stomach as well. Are you thinking our sleep position has something to do with it? It's an interesting theory but I've had this pillow for many months but the symptoms popped up just about a week ago.
My throat ache is very dull and very intermittent. I can't reliably reproduce the ache but it randomly happens when I move my head or my mouth a certain way and seems to emanate from my left thyroid area for like a split second. I wouldn't describe it as painful but just a quick dull ache. I also have no noticeable lump (visually) in my neck area. It looks completely normal.
I've got an appt with an ENT next week to check it out. I'm hoping it's not thyroid related. My mom had issues with her thyroid (I'm a male, mid 30's btw). I'm not exhibiting any symptoms of hypo or hyper thyroidism. I've felt completely healthy, I work out regularly and haven't felt sick at all this year.
I do have orthodontic braces so I'm hoping it is related to that. Like neck strain from opening my mouth really wide to floss or teeth shifting in my lower jaw.

I been having the same problem but it only started a 2 days ago I'm 27. It's actually very painful. It's like a pain I've never felt before.

I had similar pain from my neck/throat, into jaw, almost up to my ear. Mostly on the left, but some on the right. Had tests done to rule out thyroid and an Ent said it might be TMJ. I went to a chiropractor and explained my pain. He did an 'ear pull' on both ears and I felt a popping sound and have been pain free ever since. It's amazing! Pain daily for 7 months, now gone!

Had the same issue as you all. Get your ear cleaned out. I sleep on my right most of the time with fans running in my room. This allows junk to get in at night. These blockages will not show up on any scan or anything unless they are infected and have blood in them I did the ear candle and 2 otc ear wax removers and pain was gone. Had it FOR 2 F%^$&(^ YEARS. Now I clean out my wax once every 6 months. You will notice it get worse in the winter when the waxes get hard.

Hi, I would like to tell everyone about my SOLUTION TO THIS NECK PAIN!
I had this same neck pain you are describing, for over 2 years, I went to several doctors and ENTs and even had a camera put down my nose to look inside my throat. None of them could figure out what was causing the pain, or how to treat it.
I finally figured out that what was causing it was SLEEPING ON MY STOMACH! It was craning my neck and pinching something!
Once I finally trained myself how to not sleep on my stomach, I have never had the neck pain again!
It was really hard for me to stop the habit of sleeping on my stomach. I finally broke down and bought a really expensive pillow, a therapeutic pillow, and that did the trick.
I just wanted to come back here and tell others, because I searched the web trying to figure out a solution. It was pretty scary not knowing what was going on.

I have the all above complaint, the only thing its my right for the last few weeks, but no health insurance at this time. I am very worry because when I press my finger against the area it hurt more. I was unable to sleep last night because of the problem. You all pray for me for good health.
