Causes of Neck Pain

Determining what causes neck pain is the first step to rehabilitation. Neck pain can start as the result of a variety of factors, including:

  • Neck strain from poor posture or sleeping in an awkward position
  • A whiplash injury from a car accident
  • Herniated discs
  • Arthritis
  • Muscle Spasms
  • Infection

Acute Neck Pain

Acute neck pain occurs suddenly and can heal within several days to weeks with physical therapy, rest, and self-care procedures. This type of neck pain is usually seeded in the muscles and ligaments, joints, or discs.

Chronic Neck Pain

Chronic pain that persists in the neck for more than three months may be felt all the time or worsen with certain activities. Although its source may be hard to determine, contributing factors include nerve damage, tissue scarring, arthritis, or emotional effects of pain. People with chronic symptoms should seek the care of a neck pain doctor.

Neck Pain Diagnosis

Neck pain can be diagnosed through a variety of methods, including:

  • A physical examination
  • X-Ray
  • CT scans
  • A nerve conduction study
  • A bone scan

A back and neck pain specialist will review your medical history and work with you to develop a treatment plan to relieve your pain and prevent it from coming back. Neck pain can be a symptom of a serious condition, such as peripheral neuropathy, so it's important to have a thorough examination completed by an experienced medical professional.

MD Pain offers the following treatment options for your neck pain:

Percutaneous Discectomy

Percutaneous Discectomy is a minimally invasive procedure that can be performed with only local anesthetics and sedation and does not require any incisions. This procedure removes the part of a herniated disc that is irritating a nerve, therefore relieving pressure on a spinal nerve root that is causing a patient’s pain.

Stellate Ganglion Block

A stellate ganglion block is an injection of anesthetic medication into the nerves of the stellate ganglion, in the front of your neck on either side of your trachea and esophagus (not performed on both sides at one visit). The purpose is to attain relief from pain in your head, neck, upper arm, or upper chest.
