HI DOCTOR,I FREQUENTLY SUFFER FROM A SPASM IN MY NECK IT ONLY OCCURS IN THE LEFT SIDE AND IS EXTREMELY PAINFUL.  IT USUALLY STARTS WITH A CRACK NOISE AND THEN ESCALADES TO A SHARP ELECTRIC STIFF PAIN THAT COMES WHEN THE MUSCLE IS MOVED.  WHAT IS THE CAUSE OF THIS? HOW DO I TREAT IT AND CURE IT ONCE AND FOR ALL?
Hi, I have gone through your details and In my opinion you are probably suffering from cervical spondylosis. I suggest x-ray of neck, mild painkillers, muscle relaxants and most importantly Isometric neck Exercises. There is nothing called cure for once and all-you will have to do regular exercises to prevent future episodes.
