Could my weight and improper posture result in dissimilarities on both sides of my neck?

Patient's Query

Hi doctor,

I feel like my left side of the neck is not as straight as my right side. I had a neck ultrasound done in last year and they found absolutely nothing of concern and he did a very thorough investigation. I am concerned that my weight may be contributing to how it appear and I have really bad posture and I have no nausea or night sweats.

Hi,

Welcome to icliniq.com.

Thank you for your query,

I have gone through your reports. Your neck looks perfectly normal as long as you do not have any shoulder pain, pain while moving arm or lifting anything or weakness. It is just bad posture and some weight which is making it look like somewhat asymmetrical.

Please follow up for further assistances.

Thank you.

Same symptoms don't mean you have the same problem. Consult a doctor now!
