Neck Pain
Neck Pain

What is neck pain?

Neck pain can occur anywhere in your neck, from the bottom of your head to the top of your shoulders. It can spread to your upper back or arms. It may limit how much you can move your head and neck. Neck pain is common, especially in people older than 50.

What causes neck pain?

Most neck pain is caused by activities that strain the neck. Slouching, painting a ceiling, or sleeping with your neck twisted – are some things that can cause neck pain. These kinds of activities can lead to neck strain, a sprain, or a spasm of the neck muscles.

Neck pain can also be caused by an injury. A fall from a ladder or whiplash from a car accident can cause neck pain. Some less common medical problems can also lead to neck pain, such as:

  • An Infection In The Neck.
  • Narrowing Of The Spinal Canal In The Neck (Cervical Spinal Stenosis).

Rheumatoid Arthritis

You may feel a knot, stiffness, or severe pain in your neck. The pain may spread to your shoulders, upper back, or arms. You may get a headache. You may not be able to move or turn your head and neck easily. If there is pressure on a spinal nerve root, you might have pain that shoots down your arm. You may also have numbness, tingling, or weakness in your arm. If your neck pain is long-lasting (chronic), you may have trouble coping with daily life. Common side effects of chronic pain include fatigue, depression, and anxiety.

How is it treated?

The type of treatment you need will depend on whether your neck pain is caused by activities, an injury, or another medical condition.

For neck pain that occurs suddenly:

  • Use A Heating Pad On A Low Or Medium Setting For 15 To 20 Minutes Every 2 Or 3 Hours.
  • Or You Can Try An Ice Pack For 10 To 15 Minutes Every 2 To 3 Hours.
  • Take Acetaminophen Or Another Anti-Inflammatory Medicine Can Also Help Relieve Pain.
  • Avoid More Injury To Your Neck By Changing Activities And Habits, Such As How You Sit Or Sleep.
  • Try Exercises Or Manual Therapy To Help You Move Your Head And Neck More Easily. See A Physical Therapist Doctor For This Type Of Care.
