Neck pain

Neck pain is often associated with prolonged static load, stress, muscle tension or changes in the cervical spine. If your neck hurts constantly, it interferes with sleep, work and turning your head. Sometimes the pain is accompanied by a headache, numbness in the arm, or pain in the neck and back at the same time.
