The neck is comprised of several bones, muscles, nerves and blood vessels. Stress or trauma to any of them could lead to neck pain, and it can be extremely painful. In most cases, neck pain would easily subside in a few days’ time upon receiving treatment. But if it doesn’t subside, or if it is persistent, there could be a problem with the alignment of the bones or the nerves. Many people who complain of severe neck pain usually have limited movement in the neck, shoulders, arms, and head. The pain in the neck can cause the muscles around it to weaken, leading to the increased immobility.
Apart from the above-mentioned reasons, neck pain could also be caused due to fatigue, shortness of breath, wheezing, meningitis, fibromyalgia, spondylosis, spinal stenosis, tumors, etc.
Most people ignore neck pain and wait for it to subside by itself. In many cases, it does subside by itself, or when the patient takes simple pain-relieving medication. But, when there is a problem with the nerves in the affected area, it could become aggravated, and the pain could become much worse. Sometimes, patients ignore neck pain up to the point when surgery would be the only treatment option left.
