Hi doctor,
I was writing hunched over my notebook for about 1.5 hours. When I straightened up doing back stretches, it popped loudly. I felt a sudden headache immediately as well as a feeling of confusion and memory failure like losing my mind. Why?
Hi,
Welcome to icliniq.com.
- The pop sound which you heard may be due to crepitus, which many people feel after being in particular posture for a long time.
- Your loss of orientation may be caused by temporarily reduced blood flow to the brain as in vertebrobasilar insufficiency.
- You need to strengthen your neck muscles and avoid bad postures of the neck for extended periods of time. You also must do stretches very slowly and not in a hurry.
