Hi, I'm new here but thought i'd make a post as my neck pain has caused me to sit out of badminton for the last 2 weeks now. It's a sharp pain sensation running from my left trap all the way up my neck. The odd thing is i'm right handed so I don't understand how I could have injured it playing badminton... Anyone else experienced this before?
Just to b on a safe side, mention THIS to yr Dr for investigation : http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spondylitis or this http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spondylosis A friend of mine presented similar symptoms and the Drs took ages to detect this.
Thanks for the heads up Kiloo, i'm going today so will be sure to mention it. Hope it's not that serius though... Regards
Play lot of round the head forehand !?! Make sure you warm up well before play. take it easy till you heal first. Do visit your doctor and IF he rules out any serious injury, AND if you trust them, visit a chiropractor to get it set right. Then keep doing slow neck exercises like rotations till your pain is gone.
