Neck pain is a common complaint affecting many people worldwide. It can come from simple things like sitting with poor posture for a long time, especially if you spend a lot of time on the computer or doing work that strains your neck muscles. Occasionally pain in neck muscles and nerves can be more serious, especially if it’s linked to osteoarthritis or another degenerative disease. While neck pain might seem to some to be a minor complain, it can sometimes be a sign of more serious problems. For that reason, it’s important to seek medical advice if you are suffering from unexplained neck pain. In particular, if you experience symptoms like numbness or weakness in your arms or hands, or if the pain spreads into your shoulder or down your arm, it’s important to see a doctor right away. 

What is Neck Pain?

Neck pain appears in many different ways, causing various problems and discomfort that can make it hard to do everyday things. People who suffer with neck pain often feel it getting worse when they keep their head still for a long time, like when they are driving for an extended period or sitting at a desk working on the computer without a lot of movement.

Tight muscles and spasms in the neck can be caused by this lack of movement, but it can also be the result of straining the neck. This might happen through physical work requiring you to hold your head at a slightly awkward angle or through living heavy weights. These situations can make the discomfort worse, making it harder to move your head and sometimes causing headaches.

Although these symptoms may not seem serious, they can have a serious impact on your ability to function and carry out your normal daily activities. To maintain the pain-free mobility of your head, it’s important to take action to manage and treat neck pain early on.
