    I would be very worried..

    Could be mumps, but I would get it checked.

    She could've strained a muscle, but it's not worth the worry or the wait - take her straight in, I hope it's something small.

    Does her neck feel tight? Maybe she pulled a muscle?

    Best go to a doc just to be on the safe side xxxx

    I'd get it checked out too, but it sounds like a pulled muscle. DD2 pulled one in her neck at about 18 month old.
    Hope thats all it is

    Hope she's ok now... sometimes when my kids get swollen glands at the back of their neck they react like that.

    Apparantly I used to get a stiff neck all the time with tonsilitis as a child - I think because the glands in the neck swell up so much....but like others said, get it checked for peace of mind.

    She could have swollen glands - I would take her and get her looked at. I hope she is ok

    Hey Olive

    Sometimes kids can get torticollis, which can take a few days to go away. Wonder if that's what it might be. I'd take her along to the docs and she might need some anti inflam's..
    Hope she gets better very soon xx
