Why are you considering carotid artery dissection in the first place? Carotid artery dissection never happens isolated. Usually associated with aortic dissection. And if you have aortic dissection, you should get hospitalised. Aortic dissection carries 10% per hour risk of death.

Consult a vascular surgeon physically if you really have doubt.
