Hi..
Thanks for the query..
It can be a side effect of the dye or the contrast agent used for the MRI and the side effects are temporary and will resolve soon..
So my suggestion is to consult your Physician in case if you do not start getting better in next 2-3 days..
Hope this helps..
Do you have a mechanical problem or deviation in your spine?
I think it could be caused bY the position of the MRI procedure and the closure of the tube so you were tensed and your muscles got spasmed or you have a nerve problem impingement in the neck that caused this burning sensation..try warm shower ..
Hi
This is an allergic reaction to the contrast agent + the MRI, you probably had sudden increase in blood pressure, I recommend consulting your neurologist to be safe
Good Luck
