A sneeze broke this woman’s neck

When she did, while lying in bed on her phone, she sneezed and her neck jolted forward.

Axar.az reports citing Indy100.

Her C1 and C2 vertebrae collapsed and her chin fell onto her shoulder.

She, realising she couldn't move her neck and texted her husband for help. She answered the return call on speaker and he arrived shortly before an ambulance.

She was placed in a neck traction, a device that immobilises the neck muscles for healing, for 14 weeks.

She made a full recovery.

Three weeks ago, she injured her neck for a second time.

I was at work and I had a bit of a stiff neck. Nothing awful, it was just a little bit sore.

I was actually joking around with some colleagues because they were making some inappropriate jokes about how I may have hurt my neck, and I threw my head back and did it again.
