Suffering from Neck Pain in Plano?

best chiropractor for neck pain relief

Neck pain in Plano is a common complaint. Most causes of neck pain aren’t serious. Whether it’s from an exercise strain or a kink after a long day at work, neck pain is quite common. Lasting neck pain often makes even the simplest movements incredibly painful. This pain can lead to headaches that decrease your quality of life. Neck pain often causes its victims to avoid using the muscles in their neck resulting in muscle atrophy over time, further exacerbating the problem.

Discovering the source of neck pain is essential to receiving proper treatment.


Neck Pain Treatment in Plano

The neck is not the largest part of the body but it is one of the most important. It is the bridge between the head and body and needs to hold the head in proper alignment. Vertebrae in the neck are quite small and allow for mobility. However, they often lack proper strength which can give way to injuries and pain. There are numerous causes for neck pain but these are some of the most common:

  • Trauma, such as whiplash
  • Awkward Sleeping position
  • Poor posture
  • Repetitive stress
  • Abnormalities in the bone structure
  • Joint issues
  • Muscle strains and pulls

Most neck pain arises from, or has an impact on, the biomechanics of the spine. Muscles often spasm during times of neck pain which pulls on the spine causing pain and further dysfunction. When spinal function is compromised, the nerves and spinal cord can become irritated. Neck pain can be dangerous for this reason, causing problems or pain in other areas of the body.

People often ignore neck pain and believe it will go away without consequence eventually. Sometimes the pain does go away but the lingering effects on the spine can cause problems in the future. Over time, without treatment, the pain can become recurring. In extreme cases, patients have waited so long that they need surgery to fix the problem.
