Neck Pain Q & A


What causes neck pain?

The cervical spine is the part of your spine in your neck that supports your head and serves as communication between your brain and the nerves throughout your body. If any of the nerve pathways in your cervical spine become irritated, it can cause pain in your neck that radiates to your shoulders, head, arms, hands, or even down to your legs. Chronic neck pain that persists for more than three months may be a sign of a cervical disc problem or an issue with one of the facet joints in your neck.

Common causes of neck pain include:

  • Fibromyalgia
  • Degenerative disc disease of the cervical spine
  • Osteoarthritis or worn joints
  • Bone spurs
  • Herniated discs or nerve compression
  • Spinal stenosis, a narrowing of the spinal column
  • Emotional stresses
  • An infection
  • Repetitive motions
  • Poor posture

If you experience neck pain regularly and making adjustments to your pillows, posture, or desk chair don’t help, you may benefit from a more comprehensive, multidisciplinary diagnosis and treatment plan.
