Symptoms- Neck Pain

Neck pain and aches are caused by pressure on any part of the neck, including the nerves, muscles, discs, or vertebrae. In addition, pain may begin anywhere in the upper body and travel upward, resulting in a stiff neck. A neck injury that affects the nerves may cause symptoms elsewhere in the body, such as headache or arm tingling. Auto accidents or falls can cause neck strain or whiplash.

Common Causes of Neck Pain: Neck pain is often the result of work stress or muscle tension from simple or repetitive activities, such as…

• Hunching over while working.
• Exhibiting poor posture.
• Sleeping in positions that strain the neck.
• Working at a computer monitor that sits too low or too high.
• Exercising using jerky or erratic movements.
