What Is That Pain In My Neck?

“Are You Frustrated With Not Knowing The Cause Of Your Neck Pain?” Kerrville Physical Therapy Can Treat Your Aches & Pains, Naturally!

MECHANICAL NECK PAIN Mechanical pain usually starts from degenerative changes in the neck joints. As the disc starts to collapse, the space between the vertebrae narrows, and the joints may become inflamed. The pain is usually chronic and is typically felt in the neck. However, it may spread from the neck into the upper back or to the outside of the shoulder in some cases. RADICULOPATHY Pressure or irritation on or around the nerves of the neck can affect the nerves’ electrical signals. The pressure or irritation can be felt as numbness on the skin, weakness in the muscles, or pain along the path of the nerve. Weakness in the spine muscles can cause abnormal pressure on the nerves and increased chance of radiculopathy.
