Neck Pain


Your neck is made up of vertebrae that extend from the skull to the upper torso. Cervical discs absorb shock between the bones.
The bones, ligaments, and muscles of your neck support your head and allow for motion. Any abnormalities, inflammation, or injury can cause neck pain, Southlake or stiffness.
If you have neck pain, Southlake that continues for more than a week, is severe, or is accompanied by other symptoms, seek medical attention immediately.

Treating ongoing neck pain

·         Sometimes neck pain lasts longer than a few days, and you may have ongoing neck pain. There are things you can do to manage this:
  • ·         See your doctor if the pain is worse or doesn’t ease up in a week or so, if you have other symptoms in addition to your neck pain such as numbness, pins and needles, fever or any difficulty with your bladder or bowel.
  • ·         See a physiotherapist or exercise physiologist – they can provide you with stretching and strengthening exercises to help relieve your neck pain and stiffness.
  • ·         Injections – some people with persistent neck pain may benefit from a long-acting steroid injection into the affected area. Talk with your doctor about whether this is right for you.
  • ·         Surgery – may be required in very rare cases, if the pain is very severe or your spinal cord or nerves are affected.
