While most stiff necks result from minor muscle strains or ligament sprains, a stiff neck caused by meningitis is a vastly different process that stems from a potentially life-threatening infection. Without treatment it can cause brain damage in a matter of hours and can be fatal within 24 hours. Common signs and symptoms during an episode may include severe headache, fever, nausea, vomiting, sensitivity to light (photophobia), and stiff neck. This infection commonly occurs when bacteria from an upper respiratory infection enter the bloodstream. When meningitis is caused by infection, it is usually bacterial or viral. This is more common only in children with a weak immune system. The swelling from meningitis typically triggers signs and symptoms such as headache, fever and a stiff neck. If the infection spreads to the central nervous system, it can cause inflammation of the protective membranes, and thus meningitis.
