Zapped in the neck

Hi all, very strange question here... I sometimes get a shock like feeling in my neck - just randomly like I’ve been zapped quite hard but goes away straight away too. Does anyone else get these? They’re not very often but a bit puzzling! Also I had one today whilst in the shower which has upped my anxiety because water + shock = disaster! Sounds more like a trapped nerve or something but because of the water I’m now freaking out a bit that it’s an electric shock from the shower system... no logic at all as our shower isn’t even an electric one but the pump it’s connected to is electric. Hoping someone can clear this up for me x

Geo26 I can relate to that zap in the neck feeling...

It is most likely coming from a trapped or irritated nerve ending.

A prior accident can cause this as well as poor posture. Looking down

most of the day on our cells or jutting our heads forward while working

on the computer can in time cause irritated nerves, tight muscles and improper

posture. Only your doctor can address the situation through x-ray, CTScan or

MRI if it is a continuing problem. Good Luck :) xx
