In today’s busy life, it is very common for the neck to become stiff and to crack by bending it slightly. Most people consider it trivial and keep doing it without thinking. But what happened to American resident KayLynne Felthager proved this habit dangerous. This matter is now becoming increasingly viral on social media and is forcing people to think.
Cracked neck while returning from market
KayLynne Felthager was returning home as usual after shopping at Walmart. On the way he felt a slight headache. Habitually he stretched his neck by pulling it to the right so that the tension could be reduced. A light sound came from the neck, which he considered normal as before. But this time something was different. As soon as the sound came, severe pain started in his neck.
The pain didn’t go away, but she didn’t go to the doctor.
KayLynne felt that this pain was not the same as before. Even after several days passed the pain did not subside. Despite this, instead of seeing a doctor, he only resorted to painkillers. They thought that perhaps everything would be fine in a few days. But on the fifth day the situation suddenly worsened.
Bright light flashed in front of the eyes, vision lost
KayLynne was sitting in the kitchen doing makeup for the date. Then suddenly a bright light flashed in front of his right eye and he lost his vision. He could not see anything for about 15 minutes. After some time his vision came back, so he ignored it considering it to be a strange but minor incident.
The body became numb and the tongue faltered.
Some time after losing her vision, KayLynne started feeling a tingling sensation in the right side of her body, which gradually turned into numbness. The scariest moment came when she could not even speak properly. Instead of words, strange sounds were coming out of his mouth. Seeing this her husband got scared and without any delay took her to the hospital.

Shocking truth revealed in the hospital
As soon as he reached the hospital, the doctors did a CT scan. Even the doctors were shocked after seeing the report. KayLynne had had a stroke. When doctors asked him about his neck pain, he told that he had cracked his neck while returning from Walmart. After this, the doctors clarified that due to cracking of the neck, a vein in his neck had burst, which is called artery dissection. Due to this, a blood clot formed and it reached the brain, causing a stroke.
Luck was good, major surgery postponed
According to doctors, KayLynne was lucky that the blood clot dissolved quickly. For this reason he did not need surgery. His life was saved because he got timely treatment. Now she is slowly moving towards recovery.
The matter went viral on social media
People are shocked on social media after this incident came to light. Many users are writing that they too crack their neck every day and never think about the danger. Doctors are also warning that jerking the neck or repeatedly cracking it can prove fatal.
