Neck pain is a common problem that can be caused by a variety of factors, including:
The following underlying conditions may also cause back and neck pain:
Some symptoms that are associated with neck pain may include:
Thankfully, most neck discomfort will diminish on its own after rest and some temporary modifications to your physical activity.
Your neck discomfort may qualify as chronic neck pain if your pain does not subside after a few weeks and it begins to interfere with your daily activities. If this sounds like what you are experiencing, you should seek the expertise of one of our board-certified spine specialists at OrthoNeuro to determine the underlying cause of your discomfort.
Chronic neck pain can be the result of damage to your spinal discs or vertebrae. If left untreated, this could even lead to conditions that are usually associated with lower back issues, such as sciatica.
Acute pain is different because it is often caused by a one-time event, such as a car accident (for example, whiplash can strain the soft tissues of your neck), and tends to heal within several days to weeks. It can often be treated with over-the-counter medications or physical therapy.
Neck pain is usually diagnosed after a doctor reviews your medical history and conducts a physical examination. Imaging tests such as X-rays, MRI (magnetic resonance imaging), or CT scans may also be ordered to help diagnose the cause of the discomfort.

“I recently had surgery on my lower back. I had heard that such surgery would result in pain and cause me difficulties in doing ordinary daily tasks but, I experienced no pain and was able to do normal activities at home and at church. Also, being a bee keeper, I was able to work the hives and extract the honey from most of the hives”
