Treating neck pain is our area of expertise.

Neck pain could be a common grievance. Neck muscles are often strained from poor posture — whether or not it’s leaning over your computer or hunching over your worktable. Osteoarthritis is also a typical reason for neck pain.

Rarely, neck pain is a symptom of a more serious problem. Get medical aid if your neck pain is accompanied by numbness or loss of strength in your arms or hands or if you’ve got shooting pain into your shoulder or down your arm.

Symptoms
Signs and symptoms include:

  • Pain that is usually worsened by holding your head in one place for long periods, such as when driving or working at a computer
  • Muscle tightness and spasms
  • Decreased ability to maneuver your head

When to see a doctor

Most neck pain improves bit by bit with home treatment. If not, see your doctor.

Seek immediate care if severe neck pain results from an injury, like a motorized vehicle accident, diving accident or fall.

Contact a doctor if your neck pain:

  • Is severe
  • Persists for many days without relief
  • Spreads down arms or legs
  • Is accompanied by a headache, numbness, weakness or tingling

Causes

Your neck is versatile and supports the burden of your head, therefore it is at risk of injuries and conditions that cause pain and limit motion. Neck pain causes include:

  • Muscle strains. Overuse, like too many hours stooping over your pc or smartphone, usually triggers muscle strains. Even minor things, like reading in bed or gritting your teeth, will strain neck muscles.
  • Worn joints. Just like the other joints in your body, your neck joints tend to wear down with age. Osteoarthritis causes the cushions (cartilage) between your bones (vertebrae) to deteriorate. Your body then forms bone spurs that affect joint motion and cause pain.
  • Nerve compression. Herniated disks or bone spurs within the vertebrae of your neck will persist the nerves branching out from the funiculus.
  • Injuries. Rear-end automobile collisions usually lead to whiplash injury, which happens once the head is jerked backward and then forward, straining the soft tissues of the neck.
  • Diseases. Certain diseases, like rheumatoid arthritis, meningitis or cancer, can cause neck pain.

Prevention
Most neck pain is related to poor posture combined with age-related wear and tear. To help stop neck pain, keep your head centered over your spine. Some simple changes in your daily routine could facilitate. Contemplate making an attempt to:

  • Use good posture. Once standing and sitting, make sure your shoulders square measure during a line over your hips and your ears square measure directly over your shoulders.
  • Take frequent breaks. If you travel long distances or work long hours at your pc, get up, move around and stretch your neck and shoulders.
    Adjust your table, chair, and pc in order that the monitor is at eye level. Knees ought to be slightly lower than hips. Use your chair’s armrests.
  • Avoid tucking the phone between your ear and shoulder after you speak. Use a telephone receiver or telephone set instead.
    If you smoke, quit. Smoking can place you at higher risk of developing neck pain.
  • Avoid carrying heavy baggage with straps over your shoulder. The weight can strain your neck.
  • Sleep in a sensible position. Your head and neck ought to be aligned along with your body. Use a small pillow below your neck. Try sleeping on your back along with your thighs elevated on pillows, which is able to flatten your spinal muscles.
