pain in the neck

Felt like I had an ear pain the next day and I haven’t been able to lift since. I took a week off from any benching and upper body and Monday I went back tried very light weight and after two sets of ten it happened again it fells kind of like a pulled growing but in my neck and ear. I was wondering if it has happened to any one else and how long it took to heal I will be going to the doc. soon if it does not stop. But hate to spend the money for them to tell me it just takes time.:surprised:

I have done this a several times and it usually clears up in a few days with a little A535 rub, ibuprofen and rest. I would probably see a doctor if its persisting and reoccurring like you say it is. It may be something more serious. -------------- Lift. Eat. Rest. Gain. ~Brad~
