Neck Pain

Neck pain can make it challenging to do many tasks, including working at a computer, driving, walking, and other daily activities. One of the most common causes of neck pain is whiplash, a condition many suffer in auto accidents.

What Is Neck Pain?

Neck pain is common with poor posture, muscle strain, or injury. It typically presents discomfort or stiffness in the neck, which can accompany headaches, shoulder pain, numbness, and tingling in the arms. While neck pain can be bothersome, it resolves independently with rest and self-care measures, such as gentle stretching and over-the-counter pain relievers. If neck pain persists or is accompanied by other symptoms, seeking medical attention to rule out more severe conditions is essential.

What Causes Neck Pain?

Several reasons can cause neck pain. For example, poor posture, such as slouching while sitting or sleeping awkwardly, can strain the neck muscles and cause pain. Injuries like whiplash from a car accident or sports-related trauma can also lead to neck pain. Arthritis, herniated discs, and nerve compression are other common causes of neck pain. If you are experiencing neck pain, you must talk to our chiropractor to determine the underlying cause and find the best treatment options.

What Are the Symptoms of Neck Pain?

Neck pain can feel like a dull ache or sharp stabbing sensation. It may accompany stiffness or decreased range of motion in the neck. Some people may experience additional symptoms, such as headaches, dizziness, numbness, or tingling in the arms or hands. If you are experiencing neck pain, speaking with a healthcare professional to determine the underlying cause and appropriate treatment options is crucial.
