Common causes for neck pain

Some of the more common complaints we treat include:

Cervical Spondylosis

This often-age-related condition involves wear and tear of the cervical spine's discs and joints, often causing neck pain and stiffness. The wear and tear are not the problem though, it’s the lack of movement and activity that results.

Cervical Radiculopathy

Compression or irritation of nerve roots in the neck can lead to symptoms such as neck pain, with radiating pain down the arm, and sometimes weakness and paraesthesia. This pain is often severe, but physio techniques can really assist.

Whiplash

Typically caused by car accidents or sports injuries, whiplash results from sudden head movement and can lead to neck pain, stiffness, and headaches.

Cervicogenic Headaches

These headaches originate from issues in the neck and can cause persistent, often one-sided and localised head pain. Whilst the pain appears in your head, the neck is commonly the culprit. The new work from home culture and associated long sedentary postures can be to blame.

"Text Neck”

With increased use of smartphones and devices, "text neck" has become more common. It refers to neck pain and strain due to prolonged forward head posture while using these devices.

Disc Conditions

The term “slipped disc” is a very poor term but still commonly used. An irritated or herniated cervical disc can put pressure on nerves, causing neck pain and sometimes symptoms in the arms and hands. Like cervical spondylosis, because nerve is often involved, the pain can be severe.

Osteoarthritis

Degeneration of the neck's facet joints can result in osteoarthritis, leading to neck pain, reduced mobility, and nerve irritation

Stiff Neck

Sometimes, a stiff neck can occur due to muscle tightness or minor injuries, causing discomfort and restricted movement. In severe cases this is termed a “wry neck” and often seen in young children.
