Neck Pain

Neck strain, caused by poor posture or sudden movements, can be eased with rest and exercises to address muscle or ligament damage.

Strengthening the neck muscles can help improve posture and get the head closer to a neutral position.

Neck stretching exercises can help loosen postural muscles and may reduce neck pain.

Occipital neuralgia is caused when either the C2 or C3 nerve root gets pinched as it leaves the spine.

Self-care for chronic stiff neck includes gentle stretches, proper ergonomics, heat/ice therapy, and over-the-counter pain relief.

The causes of a stiff neck can be identified based on the symptoms one has and indicates the best treatment options available to remedy the situation.

Stiff neck remedies vary by cause: rest stretches for muscle strain, posture correction, and medical attention for underlying issues.

Gentle neck stretches and exercises can ease pain and dizziness. Consult a professional for tailored guidance.

Neck pain surgery is considered for serious conditions like herniated discs or spinal stenosis when conservative treatments aren't effective.
