Pressure in right side of my neck above clavical?

Question

I have an irritating pressure on the right side of my neck above my clavical. I feel like I can relieve it by putting presure on it. In my mind I feel like it is blood flow?? Its like the feeling when you complete exercise and there is throbing of blood rushing back...It I feel like that but I feel like this is something that could be serious or just more or less verry irritating. Its a constant issue, and more when I do work out its seems more apparent and I feel like I have to stop because my neck hurts so much from the pressure as if its going to pop. In everyday activities like lifting my head as if bending down and rising back up its always like big pressure prevailing on the right side of my neck only. I've gone to a doctor but its really difficult explaining this. I was hoping some one can point me in some direction? Ideas what it could be if serious or not, and maybe what I can do or tests i can do would be helpful

Answer 1

what side do you usually sleep on? your right or left?
how many pillows do you normally use?
the reason for these questions is to determine whether it is a pulled muscle for looking in one direction . you might try lying flat without any pillows. for a night or 2 and see. [if you want too] but i would go and have an x ray done.
it could be 2 or 3 things./
anxiety/bone spur/ or tension.
but go see a doctor if pain persist more than 48 hours.

Answer 2
