Does Stuttering Cause Bodily Pains too?

Does Stuttering Cause Bodily Pains too? Has anyone else who stutters developed physical discomfort from it? When I was younger, I’d get swollen glands behind my neck, and now as a 30 year old, I often have constant shoulder tension and pain. I also feel tightness in my jaw if I talk a lot. What’s a part of your body that has ongoing pain that you think is a result of your stutter? Just wondering if others experience similar neck/shoulder/jaw pain and if anything helps.
