Causes of neck pain

Neck pain is most commonly caused by tissue and bone injuries; however, certain degenerative disorders can also cause neck pain.

Other common causes of neck pain that we can treat are:

Neck injuries

Whiplash is one of the most common injuries that result in neck pain and is typically sustained by an automobile accident or high-impact sports collision. Whiplash is a “strain” injury, causing the head to whip rapidly back and forth, thus affecting the soft tissues in the back of the neck.

Illness

Certain diseases and ailments can result in neck pain, such as rheumatoid cancer, arthritis, cervical spondylosis, spinal stenosis, and meningitis.

There are many more reasons why neck pain may occur, so slow down before you start searching on Google! That is a sure way to only stress yourself out.

Degenerative joint conditions

Conditions such as osteoarthritis can reduce the cartilage between the vertebrae in the neck. This also results in neck pain. Like any other joint in your body, the neck joints can deteriorate with age, causing pain.

Compressed nerves

If you have a herniated disc in your neck, the nerves that branch out from your spinal cord may be pinched (the place where the nerves exit the spine). In some cases, nerve pain can radiate from the neck to the hands and fingers, a condition known as “radiculopathy.”

Neck muscle strains

Even something as simple as sitting at your desk all day with your neck craned toward the computer screen can cause your neck muscles to become strained by overuse.

The best way to be 100% sure of why you are experiencing neck pain is to request an appointment with one of our health care professionals.

Symptoms of neck pain

Neck discomfort usually radiates from the base of the skull to the tops of the shoulder blades, settling at the back of the neck. The discomfort might be mild or severe, ranging from dull aching to acute, stabbing aches.

Additionally, neck pain can sometimes include these symptoms:

  • Stiffness and muscle tightness in the upper body
  • Inability to fully stand up or sit up straight
  • Discomfort and pain when remaining in the same position for too long
  • Difficulty sleeping due to pain and discomfort
  • Weakness in your arms or shoulders
  • Headaches
  • Numbness or tingling in the upper extremities

If you are experiencing these symptoms, our clinic has the solution to your problem! Our therapists are skilled when it comes to finding and treating the source of your neck pain!
