What is wrong with my neck?!


Question: What is wrong with my neck!?
Well recently, I was in my yard doing tucks (backflips with knees tucked in) and for some reason, I screwed up in mid air, and I landed down on my neck (luckily I broke the fall with my arms alittle so I didnt FULLY land on my neck)
But anyways, when I landed, I heard three little crunch sounds in my neck and ever since, its been hurting!. I can move it and stuff, but it hurts if I move it up or look to my left side!.
I dont wanna go and pay for a doctor if its not that bad, but if I dont know whats wrong with it and keeps hurting for another week or so, then I will go!. What Im asking is if any of you know what could possibly be wrong with my neck, or any guesses of what you think is wrong!?
Please try to help me out!.Www@Answer-Health@Com


Answers:
It sounds likes you have either strained muscles or ligaments in your neck!. What to do about it depends on how long
ago it was!. If it was less than 48 hours put ice pack on it
to reduce inflammation ie any swelling and take tylenol for pain!.If it is over 48 hours use heat and take tylenol!. You should be fine within a few weeks!. You don't appear to have
any other symptoms ie really restricted motion etc!. so it
appears to be simply soft tissue pain just like if you had sprained your ankle only you have sprained your neck!. If you
had broken something you would be in a LOT more pain
and would not be able to move so don't worry! If you are
in such good shape you can do flips you will recover quickly!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

ok so u dont wanna go to a doctor!.!.!.now!.!.!.!.but u ll have to go eventually!.!.!.
it might be simple crik
a sprain
or u might have fractured ur cervical vertebrae
i suggest u dont move ur neck around unnessarily and take a pain killer along with a topical medication!.!.!.!.massage ur neck gently
if the pain doesnt go or the neck starts swelling or bruising then
its time for an Xray cervical spine+ soft tissues neckWww@Answer-Health@Com
