Neck Pain, Spasm, Cervical Treatment Doctors in Chandigarh Mohali

A human neck is made up of vertebrae that extend from the skull to the upper torso. Cervical discs absorb shock between the bones. However, the bones, ligaments, and neck muscles help to support the head as well as allow for motion. Any abnormalities, inflammation, or injury can cause neck stiffness or pain.

Most people experience such discomfort occasionally. In many cases, it is due to poor body posture or overuse. Sometimes, the neck stiffness or pain is caused by an injury, accident, or Whiplash.

Most of the time, neck pain is not a severe condition and can be cured within a few days. But in some instances, it can indicate some serious injury or illness and requires a professional’s care.

If you have been experiencing pain in the neck for more than a week, consult Dr. GS Natt today.

Dr. Natt is one of the best neck pain doctors in Mohali.

Causes of neck pain

Neck stiffness or pain can happen due to various reasons.

Muscle tension and strain:

Such a condition occurs due to specific activities and behaviours, such as:

• poor posture
• working at a desk for too long without changing the position
• sleeping with your neck in a bad posture
• Jerking your neck during workouts

Injury:

The neck is generally vulnerable to injury, especially in car accidents, falls, or sports. In such a situation, the neck muscles and ligaments are forced to move outside of their normal range.

If the neck bones (cervical vertebrae) are fractured, the spinal cord might also get damaged. Neck injury due to sudden jerking is commonly known as Whiplash.

If you have been experiencing any discomfort in your neck for quite some time now, then consult Dr. GS Natt now. He is known for diagnosing and providing the best neck cervical treatment in Mohali.

Heart Attack:

Neck pain is also considered a symptom of a heart attack. However, it is often present with other symptoms of a heart attack, such as:

• Shortness of breath
• Sweating
• Nausea
• Vomiting
• Arm or jaw pain

If you have other symptoms of heart attack along with pain in the neck, then consult our professionals now.

Meningitis:

Such a medical condition happens due to an inflammation of the thin tissue that surrounds the brain and spinal cord. People who suffer from meningitis also experience fever and headache often along with a stiff neck.

Meningitis can be fatal ad requires immediate medical treatment. If you have any such symptoms of meningitis, then seek the help of our best neck pain specialist in Chandigarh today. 

Other causes:

• Rheumatoid arthritis causes swelling and pain in the joints and bone spurs. It might also happen in the neck, which causes pain.
• Osteoporosis weakens the bones, which further leads to small fractures. Such conditions can happen in the knees, hands, as well as neck.
• Fibromyalgia is a medical condition that causes muscle pain throughout the entire body. It mainly targets the shoulder and neck region.
• As a person grow old, cervical discs can degenerate. Such a condition is known as spondylosis. It can narrow the space between the vertebrae and adds extra stress to your joints.
