What is Neck Pain?

As our lifestyle becomes more and more stressful day by day, it shows disastrous effects on our health. Neck pain is one of them. Over five million people in India are suffering from neck pain problems. Neck pain affects around 330 million people worldwide as of 2010. It is more common in females (5.7%) than in males (3.9%). Butit is less common than low back pain. Neck pain, though felt in the neck, can be caused by other spinal conditions. 

SYMPTOMS OF NECK PAIN

Symptoms of neck pain

CAUSES OF NECK PAIN

  • Bone spurs/Osteophyte formation: There is a small bone growth at the joint in some cases. It puts stress on the nerve, causing pain.
  • Disc degeneration: The vertebral discs help in smooth movement with the spine. When the disc thin-out due to wear and tear, there is more friction while movement, causing pain.
  • Disc herniation: The gel inside the vertebrae acts as a shock absorber. When the gel leaks out of the disc, it becomes brittle and cracks open putting pressure on the exposed nerve, causing pain.
  • Poor posture:  Leaning forward for a prolonged time. For example, the head and shoulders bent forward when you work in front of a computer. There is an extreme strain on the muscles and ligaments in the neck, which results in pain.
  • Neck arthritis or Cervical osteoarthritis: Mechanical and degenerative factors cause asymptomatic chronic neck pain is called cervical spondylosis.
