Should i be seeing a neurologist?

Question

For the past 2 months i have felt very spacey or a clousyness in my head 24/7. I have been to many doctors and had many tests done. The back of may head and my neck ach alot and sometimes my head feels funny. Now for the past few days my nose and sometimes my lips and chin feel numb or tingly. Does anyone know if a neurologist would be a good doctor to go for these problems. I have had a CAT scan, stress test and blood work and it all somes back fine. The only thing that came back is that I have neck spasms but i know they can't be causing all these problems. Everyday I feel like **** and i don't know what else to do. I think my next step is going to see a neurologist. Did anyone ever feel the same way? And i only 21 thats what scares me.

Answer 1

you should have gone to the neurologist in the first place, anything above the neck is for a neurologist, don´t be scared it is always better to know what you are dealing with, don´t wait any longer

Answer 2

I suspect that your neck & shoulder muscles are extremely tense. I suffer the same symptoms that you do and, yes, they can all be caused by tense neck & shoulder muscles.

I do two exercises to relieve the pain & stretch the muscles.

1) Try to touch your right shoulder with your head. Don't force it. Hold you head in that position for 10 counts. Do the same with the left side. Also drop your head down as far as you can & hold for 10 counts. Do this until you are able to do it without pain. A neurologist told me NOT to rotate the head.

2) Hold your shoulders up as far as you can then release.

I'm doing these exercises now as I'm typing. They are especially important to do when you've been on the Internet for an hour then do them every hour.
