NECK PAIN SYMPTOMS & CONDITIONS

During this minimally-invasive procedure, the physician uses heat from radio waves to treat painful facet joints in your neck. This procedure is also called radiofrequency rhizotomy. It can treat pain that doesn't respond to medications or to physical therapy.

This injection relieves pain in the neck, shoulders, and arms caused by a pinched nerve (or nerves) in the cervical spine. It can be used to treat conditions such as herniated discs, spinal stenosis, and radiculopathy.

A person's neck is likely to be in constant motion — we glance down at a computer keyboard, twist to the right to find a coffee cup, perhaps flinch to the left at the ring of a doorbell. When neck pain strikes this body part because of a pinched or compressed nerve, it can severely impact daily functioning.

A sudden shock to the body can be frightening. A quick fall or smacking of the elbow is startling enough, but when you suffer from whiplash or other neck strain, it can bring terrible pain and great concern. The Pain Center cares about you, and we are ready to help you treat whiplash and neck pain.

We have all experienced occasional headaches that go away once we take over-the-counter medications. However, some individuals experience headaches that persist. Chronic headaches and migraines affect individuals for more than 15 days within a month.

Chronic neck pain symptoms include headache, muscle spasms and tightness, and pain when holding your head in one position for extended periods. Note that you may also find it quite challenging to move your head around when suffering from chronic neck pain.
