bizarre sneezing pain

**dec11** · 11-02-2011, 10:26 PM

random topic but when i sneeze i get severe pain going through my shoulders and shooting down through my biceps. its similar to pain from and intense training 'pump' and feels like a punched 'dead arm' for around 10secs.

never ever felt it before i built significant muscle, anyone experience similar? only thing i can think of is blood being propelled quickly through arteries due to pressure rising.

I get it too.. I used to only get it when I tried to hold on a sneeze but now I get it most of the time during just regular sneezing.. I only get it in 1 shoulder tho

Thats just weird

sneezing is a violent affair!

It's just to the right of the colar bone for me bear

I get something similar, no arm involvement for me though. I a pretty sure mine is caused by my spine injury. It feels exactly the same, but not as painful, as sneezing when my problem was at its worst. I sneezed about a week ago and the pain was INTENSE and lasted for a couple of days. I feel like I am always on the brink.

No but when I blow my nose I see stars for a while which is kinda freaky

**dec11** · 11-03-2011, 12:42 PM

well, i googled and got from the serious to the not so serious.

serious-disturbed discs in upper spine and sneeze compresses them and causes nerve pain to shoot down arms.
not so serious-pressure sends a rush of blood down blood vessels in the arms.

had a bad car smash 10yrs ago and hope it doesnt relate to the neck thing, but then it seems quite afew get this sensation and we cant have all had bad car smashes

I've had that too lol. But what's most annoying are my hands going numb when I cross my arms.

**Eddie_m63** · 11-04-2011, 02:45 PM

I get all of this too.

**scorpion62** · 11-04-2011, 03:20 PM

IMO that is exactly what it is.. I have serious issues with a disc coming in direct contact with my spinal cord (I started a thread on this a while back.) Was supposed to have surgery but opted to wait until it was not an option anymore. Anyways sometimes a sneeze can buckle me if I am in certain positions.
Go get a MRI and see what is going on...

My situation exactly. Sneezing will still occasionally give me pain for a day or two. An MRI will tell you what is going on...mine was frightening.

Yeah... along with a host of other problems like "burners" I call them, when I turn my head sometimes I am hit with a burning pain that freezes me with pain and stiffness..From base of neck to the top of my head.. I am seriously talking about paralyzing pain. It lasts for about 20-30 seconds and leaves me sore and stiff for about an hour... Frickin scary shite I tell you!!
It makes it hard to play sports like basketball cuz I look like an idiot going up for a lay up and then falling down groaning with drool coming out of my mouth..eheheheh...
One of these days I am gonna get a "burner" in the middle of a fight and I am gonna get the shite kicked out of me!!!

this scares me
sometimes after one set of shoulder exercises my whole trap area gets stiff and range of motion in neck very little including a feeling of heating up...
