What Is Neck Pain?
Neck pain is any discomfort or painful sensations that you experience in your neck region. This area is made up of bones, ligaments and muscles that both support your head and allow you to have a full range of motion. Injury, inflammation or abnormalitie00s can cause stiffness or pain in the neck and limit its movement.
Neck pain is an extremely common occurrence. Most people, at some time or another, will experience pain in the neck region, usually due to poor posture or overuse. Most neck pain is not severe and ordinarily resolves in a matter of days. Even neck pain caused by a mild injury generally dissipates on its own. However, neck pain that is severe and lasts for more than a few weeks is considered chronic neck pain, and there could be an underlying condition or complication that requires medical intervention.
