I've been experiencing this really heavy feeling in my neck for the past couple of days. It's like my neck needs constant support, almost like it's a burden. But here's the thing: it doesn't hurt, and it's not stiff. It's just unusually heavy. What could be causing this, and what should I do about it?

You may be experiencing neck muscle fatigue or tension. To help relieve the feeling of heaviness in your neck, you can try taking a muscle relaxant like **Cyclobenzaprine** 10mg once daily. Additionally, you can apply a topical pain relief gel like **Voltaren Gel** to the affected area. Make sure to also practice good posture and gentle neck stretches to help alleviate the discomfort.

How does a seizure feel?

Depends on the type of seizure. Some seizures may alter emotions or change the way things look, smell, feel, taste or sound, but you don't lose consciousness.
