Neck pain is a common complaint and can be caused by various injuries or strains. For some patients, neck pain is acute, lasting a short period of time and often recovers on it's own with rest. For others, chronic neck pain can be a serious problem.
Neck pain can originate from a number of causes such as neck muscle strains, worn joints, cervical nerve compression, diseases, or injuries. Neck injuries can occur at any time for a variety of reasons, but such factors as your age and occupation can make neck pain more likely.
