The cause of neck pain can range from acute strains and sprains or chronic conditions such as osteoarthritis. Faulty body mechanics is the common denominator!
Common Causes:
1. Forward neck flexion caused by electronic use, computers, reading and poor posture.
2. Stomach sleeping and improper use of pillows
3. Weakened abdominals contributing to trunk flexion
4. Poor body mechanics while lifting weights or heavy groceries
5. Previous injuries
6. Cervical structure (genetics)
Don’t allow your neck pain to continue without getting evaluated. Proper treatment will not only reduce pain but will prevent further destruction which can contribute to degenerative changes.
