Understanding Neck Pain Together
Neck pain is a common issue that can range from mild stiffness to sharp, debilitating discomfort. Whether from poor posture, stress, or an injury, neck pain can interfere with daily activities like sitting at a desk, driving, or even sleeping. If your neck pain is persistent or affecting your quality of life, it’s time to take action.
Common Neck Conditions
Muscle Strain - Overuse, poor posture, or sudden movements can strain the muscles and ligaments in your neck.
Cervical Disc Herniation - When the discs in your cervical spine become damaged, they can press on nerves, causing pain and numbness.
Whiplash - Often caused by a sudden impact, such as in a car accident, leading to pain, stiffness, and limited movement.
Cervical Spondylosis - Degeneration of the discs and joints in the neck due to aging, leading to pain and stiffness.
Tension Neck Syndrome - Caused by prolonged stress or poor posture, leading to muscle tightness and pain in the neck and shoulders.
