Pain In The Neck

So I have been wearing a neck brace for the last few days, as if my self esteem wasn't bad enough! I won't be posting any pictures, because frankly, I look like Mimi from Drew Carey. I slept on the couch two Sunday's ago because our new dog was making so much noise in our room, and I woke up with just a sore neck. Nothing to be worried about. On Tuesday, I got out of bed and felt a shock go down both of my legs and the pain in my neck was so bad. It hurt to stand or sit down. I went to a chiropractor and it ended up hurting more than ever. I went to urgent care and they gave me a shot to help me relax and to help me at least sleep a little...didn't happen. So I went to a Dr. on Monday and he took one look at me and knew what it was. It's called Torticollis.
It starts with a pinched nerve from a slipped disc in the neck. It causes my head to lean to one side. They took x-rays and my neck doesn't have the natural "c" curve in it from the side view, instead, it curves to the left looking straight on.
I started physical therapy Tuesday, and go again today. Hopefully, it will take care of itself so I don't have to go under the knife!
