Fizzing Sensation In Neck
Posted: 02-02-06 16:12pm

Does anyone ever get a crackling or fizzing sensation at the base of their head on the back of their neck? I only get it when I wake up from sleeping and being completely still for a while. Almost as if someone has opened a can of soda inside my neck?


I've looked it up on the internet and found absolutely nothing for what might be the cause, leading me to believe it is just stress and anxiety, but can anyone share a similar experience.

My Neck Pains...

I don't get a fizzing sensation. But I do a weird sensation. It's not an "ouch" pain, but when it's there is very annoying and constant.

I get that fizzing sensation as well. I've always wondered what caused it. I've had this sensation as long as I can remember. It was more frequent in my 20's and 30's than it is now (i'm 42.)

Fizzing At Base of Brain
Posted: 04-23-06 08:46am

I have had fizzing at the base of my brain for several years now. It is more noticeable when I am lying down and sometimes happens when I swallow. I have also noticed that it is much worse the morning after a night of drinking. It feels like a whoosh of liquid from the base of my brain to the middle of my head. I also can't find anything on the internet and the doctor doesn't seem interested. The only way I can describe it is as though a vein or artery at the base of my brain has got kinked and there is a build up of pressure which finally releases whoosing blood up the artery and in to my brain with a fizzing noise.
I would be very interested in hearing from anyone who has had this phenomena explored as we seem to be among a minorioty of people who suffer from it!

I have that too. I have never told anyone about it because I didn't know how to describe it. It is almost like the sound you hear when you eat pop rocks. I have had it for about six months. I have no idea what it is either.

Yes I get this too but its rare,maybe once a month.
Im thinking its the fluids within the spinal cord that cause
the sound.
