Neck Pain

Neck pain is a common and often debilitating issue that can significantly impact a person's daily life and can be caused by small things like sleeping in a manner that causes the neck muscles to lock. Other causes of neck pain include bad posture over a period of time, a pinched nerve or injury such as whiplash from a fall or car accident. Osteoarthritis is a common cause of neck pain. Symptoms include worsening pain when the head is in the same position for a long time as in when driving or working on a computer, tightness of muscles or spams, inability to move the head too much and headache. You may also feel numbness or tingling sensations if the nerve is compressed.
