Neck Pain
Neck pain is a common musculoskeletal complaint that can affect your ability to work, sleep, exercise, drive, and comfortably turn or move your head.
The neck is designed to provide a large amount of movement while supporting the weight of the head. Pain may develop suddenly or gradually and can be associated with muscle tension, joint irritation, restricted movement, repetitive stress, posture, physical activity, or injury.
Common Symptoms
- Aching or soreness
- Sharp or localized pain
- Muscle tightness or spasms
- Stiffness or difficulty turning the head
- Reduced or uncomfortable range of motion
- Pain extending into the shoulders or upper back
If neck pain is interfering with your work, sleep, activities, or everyday movement, schedule an evaluation at Smithfield Chiropractic to determine what may be contributing to your symptoms and what treatment options may be appropriate.
