Neck pain can make everyday movements feel like a challenge, whether it’s turning your head, looking down, or simply sitting upright. You might notice stiffness, sharp twinges, or tingling in your arms. At Florida Medical Center in Panama City, we offer personalized care to pinpoint the cause and relieve your pain, so you can feel like yourself again.
Treat Cervical Pain at the Root
Neck pain refers to discomfort or tension in the cervical spine, the area that supports your head and allows for movement. It can stem from the bones, discs, muscles, or nerves in the neck. Neck pain may feel dull and achy, or sharp and stabbing, and can sometimes radiate into the shoulders, arms, or upper back. Whether caused by injury, posture, or degeneration, neck pain is your body’s way of signaling that something needs attention, and you must listen.
Signs & Symptoms of Neck Pain:
- Dull, aching, or throbbing pain in the neck
- Sharp or stabbing sensations
- Stiffness and reduced range of motion
- Tingling, numbness, or shooting pain down the arms
- Tightness in the shoulders or upper back
- Headaches stemming from the neck
- Increased pain with movement or prolonged sitting
What Causes Neck Pain?
Neck pain can be triggered by a wide range of factors, from sudden injuries to long-term habits. Poor posture, especially from looking down at phones or computers for extended periods, can gradually strain your neck. Acute trauma, like whiplash from a car accident, may also cause inflammation or damage. Sometimes, neck pain develops due to wear and tear over time, affecting the discs, joints, and nerves in the cervical spine.
Common causes of neck pain include:
- Intersegmental dysfunction
- Tension headaches
- Cervical facet syndrome
- Whiplash injuries
- Cervical spinal stenosis
- Cervical radiculopathy
- Herniated or bulging cervical discs
