What Is Neck Pain?
Your neck is made up of muscles, ligaments, and the upper spinal vertebrae. It is vulnerable to strains and other injuries at all stages of life due to its range of motion and lack of protection.
Neck pain symptoms can range from subtle and intermittent to chronic and debilitating and can be caused by a variety of factors. About half of the population reports having this health problem by middle age. Typically, 2% to 11% of the population is experiencing neck pain at any given moment. Neck ailment is common and is often caused by bad posture, as many jobs require leaning in front of a computer screen or hovering over a workbench. In rare cases, your ache can be a symptom of something more serious.
You don’t have to suffer when you see doctors who specialize in interventional pain management techniques, such as those at Redefine Healthcare’s center for pain management. Rely on the specialists to accurately diagnose the source of pain based on medical history, physical exam, and various imaging tests such as X-rays, CT scans, and MRI tests. We treat pain regularly and have the most up-to-date medical diagnostics equipment and therapeutic techniques to determine the cause of your pain and treat it at its source.
Types of Neck Pain
Because of the complex and delicate structure of the neck, discomfort can manifest in a variety of ways. The following are the most often reported types:
Muscular. Your neck muscles can become achy and sore after strenuous activity or psychological stress. Muscle spasms in the neck can cause painful tightness and stiffness.
Headache. Headaches are caused by muscle tension or spasms and often appear at the back of the head or the top of the neck.
Vertebral. Arthritis in the vertebral facet joints can cause sharp and dull aches when you move your head from side to side.
Nerve-related. A pinched nerve can cause various levels of discomfort. Depending on the nerve, the numbness may even extend through the arm and down to your hands.
