Chiropractic Treatment for Neck Pain

Awakening with pain in the neck is not a great way to start a day. As painful as it may be, it is not that uncommon and a good massage, perhaps with a muscular balm, should take care of it. Other times, despite the pain in the neck, it can be quite serious, not only because of the discomfort they cause, but also because neck pain can be a symptom of a more serious underlying problem, such as meningitis.

You should seek medical attention without delay if the neck pain feels like a throbbing pain that starts from the neck and then goes to the shoulders and arms. Neck pain accompanied by a tingling sensation, weakness or numbness in the arms should also be considered serious, as well as a neck so rigid that it can not touch the chest or have swelling around it.

Causes of neck pain

Less severe neck pain, such as stiff neck, is caused by poor posture or by sleeping on a pillow that does not offer adequate support. Sleeping on your stomach also causes stiff neck. Tender neck muscles, such as through heavy work or driving for a long time, can also cause pain in the neck that can go beyond the shoulders and back. In addition to stresses, worn neck joints also hurt, especially if neck stretches are done often especially in older people and this can progress to osteoarthritis. Nerves can also cause neck pain. Arthritis can cause bone spurs, which are hard and bony growths that put pressure on the nerves and trigger pain. Herniated discs, where the inner layer that resembles the gel on a disc protrudes into the harder outer layer and presses on the nerves, causing pain. Sometimes, neck pain is experienced as a symptom of an underlying condition, such as rheumatoid arthritis, which causes pain in the neck, as well as meningitis, whose main symptoms are a painful and stiff neck. Direct injuries to the neck, such as a car accident or blow, will also cause pain, as well as a sudden movement of the neck from side to side or from back to front, which would stretch the soft tissue of the neck too much.

Tests for neck pain

If the neck pain is severe enough to seek medical attention or chiropractic, the doctor will look for the exact place where the pain is felt, ask questions to discover possible causes and then give you treatment. Sometimes, an imaging test such as an x-ray may be necessary, as well as tests on the nerves. This would reveal conditions such as bone spurs, compressed or pinched nerves. An MRI would reveal even more details of the spinal cord and nerves.

Treating neck pain

A tense neck can be treated at home with steps such as applying ice or a warm towel, depending on how long the pain has been experienced. However, persistent or recurrent persistent pain should be treated by a chiropractor or MD. A doctor may prescribe medications such as painkillers and even muscle relaxants. Chiropractors would use ice / heat therapy along with different types of physiotherapy and adjustments to relieve neck pain. A patient may also be asked to wear a neck brace to relieve muscle pressure, but this is recommended for short-term use. Stretching the neck can also be offered so that the neck muscles stretch and strengthen. This is where a chiropractor comes in.

Chiropractic is a field of medicine that specializes in the treatment of conditions by concentrating on the spine. This form of therapy specializes in the musculoskeletal system and the treatment is based on mechanically adjusting the spine to the optimal shape and condition to restore the body to good health. It works from the fundamental principle that diseases and diseases originate in a misaligned spine that triggers the nerves to register pain and that realigning the spine will calm the nerves and eliminate the sensation of pain and poor general health. When it comes to neck pain, a Santa Monica chiropractor will mechanically adjust the spine and neck first with a massage or different types of physiotherapy to relax and relax the muscles.
