Neck keeps cracking whenever I turn my head

Has anyone ever had this? Since this morning every time I turn my head to the left or right my neck gives a couple of clicks / cracks / grinds. It’s uncomfortable and becoming more painful as the day goes on. Literally started out of the blue. Spot where my spine meets my head is sore.

Have I slept badly? How can I stop this as it‘s really quite frustrating. I’m now trying not to turn my head at all If I can help it.

I just want it to go away Angry

The clicks / cracks / grinding noise is audible. My husband can hear it sitting next to me

Go and see your GP asap to check it’s nothing serious.

It probably isn’t, and they can refer you to a physio or osteo who can give you exercises to loosen it up.

It literally just resolved itself after about a week but I’ve started taking omega oils because I’ve heard that’s supposed to help.

i also bought new pillows for the bed!

So do you no longer hear the grinds etc?

OP You need to stretch when you get up. Yoga exercises or similar, and book in for a massage and tell the masseuse about your neck.

I have the same problem and am giving you advice.. what a plonker I am !
