Acute pain will result when tissue is injured by trauma, surgery, illness, or infection. This type of pain is generally understood and expected. It is typically sharp, shooting, aching, or burning, and it decreases as the tissue heals and the body recovers. This is pain that is &#8220;talking to you&#8221; and telling you that something is wrong.<\/p>\n<p>The sudden onset of pain in the neck can occur after an injury or may appear without a known problem. If the pain is only in the tissues around the spine and does not radiate into the shoulders, arms, or hand, it is less likely to involve pressure on the nerve roots. If the pain is radiating into the limb, then this is more likely to involve pressure on the nerve. The etiology could be a strain or tearing of the supporting tissues with intense muscle spasm, a herniation of the disc between the vertebrae, or a fracture of the bony structure of the spine. Initial care will include rest, pain medications, muscle relaxants, and possibly epidural steroid injections, with trigger point injections for muscle spasms. The early use of physical therapy is important in many cases.<\/p>\n<h3>\n\t\tChronic Neck Pain\n\t<\/h3>\n\t<p>When a particular pain outlasts the normal healing process, it is categorized as chronic pain. Chronic pain symptoms can be caused by a variety of abnormalities in the nervous system. It can be complex, and it is often disabling. Chronic pain can greatly affect a person&#8217;s work, personal relationships, and self-esteem. The determination of a specific and accurate diagnosis is mandatory for proper treatment.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Chronic neck pain<\/strong> is pain experienced longer than 3 to 6 months and might result from the same sources as noted in acute neck pain. However, many times the pain may originate from an injury to the nerve tissues from chronic degeneration of the spine or may continue after surgery. Appropriate evaluation might reveal the pain source, and allow specific treatment. The anatomical reasons for pain need to be differentiated from the pain caused by nerve injury which is also known as neuropathic pain.<\/p>\n<h3>\n\t\t Causes Of Neck Pain\n\t<\/h3>\n\t<p>The cervical region or upper portion of the spine is made up of small bones known as vertebrae that line the back of the neck from the skull down to the shoulders. Between each vertebra are discs that help absorb shock between the bones. If there is any misalignment of these bones or a damaged disc (also known as a slipped disc), then mild to severe pain generally follows. Discomfort in the neck may also be caused by injury to the muscles and ligaments in the neck that occurred during contact sports, a bad fall, or whiplash from a car accident. Typically, neck pain is not a cause for serious concern and can be easily eased with medication or other therapies. However, in some cases, neck pain may be caused by osteoarthritis, which is the deterioration of the underlying cartilage and bone. If you are experiencing ongoing neck pain, we encourage you to schedule an appointment with our team at Tricity Pain Associates.<\/p>\n<h3>\n\t\tTreatments For Neck Pain \n\t<\/h3>\n\t<p>In most cases, neck pain will resolve on its own within a few days.
