Does MS hug ever happen on just one side and involve the neck and shoulder?

My understanding about the MS "hug" is that it's usually around the torso, causing a tightening that can be quite painful. Here's an article that explains this - https://www.mstrust.org.uk/a-z/ms-hug
When I had this, it wrapped around my chest/torso and the description I used was like having a boa constrictor squeezing me, making it hard to breathe!
If whatever you are experiencing becomes very painful, a call to the Dr. might be helpful.1st sx '89 Dx '99 w/RRMS - SP since 2010

Ask the same question.
My squeezing/spasms though are on the right side only - from just below my ribs in the front spreading up my ribs & to the side & little to the back. I had an ultrasound to rule gallbladder problems,just in case. (ha, in a way - I wish- something fixable, for once.)
Looks like from that article one side is common & and various places are common too.Tl-Tr3
