i recently just got over pneumonia myself and according to my discharge papers it says that if you develop neck pain or stiffness that you should contact your doctor immediately. i had a little bit of both but i believe mine was from the bed rest. i would call your doctor and ask what they think you should do. hope you feel better soon!
can you have a stiff neck with pneumonia? . i was treated for pneumonia with an antibiotic and prednisone for my chronic asthma. i have recently noticed a stiff neck that seems to worsen by the end of the day. can this be a side effect from the medicine or pneumonia? or should i be concerned with a completely different illness?
