I am dying now…the cause of mine might be the “funny sleeping position”…:(
Word for today: stiff neck
Cause of a stiff neck–
Not all stiff necks are the same. While most of the time a stiff neck is caused by whiplash, ergonomics, wear and tear, or just sleeping in a funny position, there are those instances where it can be the sign of something systemic. Meningitis, an infection of the lining of the brain, is one such instance, and can be quite serious. Stiff neck is one of the symptoms of meningitis. Rule out meningitis as a cause of stiff neck.
