I'm not a medical professional by any stretch of the definition, so take what I am going to say with a massive pile of salt, but I believe that tension in that area can cause it to recede slightly, so just try relaxing or rubbing it. I highly recommend that you see a doctor if it is really bothering you, and not going on internet forums for medical advice.

Th...This is what that earlier thread was about?!
Advice A: Do not take medical advice from a community of internet nerds blindly. Seriously, you'd better be able to fill crates with salt, my friend.
Advice B: If you feel you require medical attention, do not use potentially valuable time demanding said information based on an cartoon drawing of some guy's neck, and then also demand that the aforementioned internet nerds interpret what you want.

That being said, is it painful in any way, or is it just the apparent absence of your SCM that is striking?

 

[Aerodyamic]

As above, I'm not a medical professional. You're talking about the one slightly below and behind the jaw-point, right? If it were tense, if would probably elongate, causing it to appear receded, and probably wouldn't be as noticeable, under tactile examination.

After I got my wisdom teeth out, everything else was so swollen and tense that I couldn't actually tell where my jaw ended and my neck began, but I've got a fairly large neck, and it's sort the same width as my head to begin with. I honestly couldn't see any differentiation between any of the damn muscles anywhere in my jaw and upper neck regions.

Stab wildly into your neck with a rusty knife, then peel away the skin so you can see. If you can't see it, it was probably taken by crab people. Furthermore, compounding upon the previously proved point re the absence of muscular neck tissue, you must delve into the darkest reaches of the ocean, bringing with you a harpoon, SCUBA gear and a group of orphans. Once you reach the crab people caves, trade your neck muscles for the orphans (they must be virginal) then slowly back away. At the threshold of the cave you must turn and depart at once, if you were to turn back, even for a second, you will be hunted down and killed.

Alternately it could be something else but whatever.

 

[brodie21]

clarify for me, are you complaining of any discomfort, numbness, or pain in that area?

or, are you complaining because you cannot feel, as in touch, the definition of the neck muscle?

Yeah, I second this.

This is completely valid medical advice, and I endorse the above procedure.

But no, in all seriousness, a forum of mostly gaming nerds is probably not the right place to ask about that, lol.

Actually, most of the internet is a terrible place for medical advice.

I could say I'm a doctor, and you should whip your neck to side-to-side rapidly until you feel a tearing pop, but that doesn't mean you should follow my sage instruction.

Hey, don't discriminate the crab folk >(
And i think the orphans should be from a certain age group... Maybe 10-12 Years old, so they have nice tender skin... Tender flesh... Tender meat...

I like this train of thought...

 

[Lizmichi]

Whoot I was right anyway... why do you feel your own neck?
OT: I;m not a doctor, I can't really give you any information.

"And tonight on CNN; Man followed advise of the internet, after having asked questions regarding the neck area, one person advised to wildly flail his neck. The victim was found the next morning with a broken neck, and appeared to have backflipped wildly into a nearby wall. Local police claims it was harmless advise, gone awry.

Crime scene investigations also showed a ridiculous ammount of knives. Local media claims it's another victim of the lols."

I'll have you know my guess is the OT is a GIRL. Take time to look at profiles my fellow Escapists.
