Cervical Pain: Types, Causes and Treatment

Cervical pain is pain or discomfort in the neck area, which is the part of the spine that connects the head in the upper back to the rest of the body. This is a problem that can affect people of all ages and can have many causes.

If the discomfort caused by arthritis is left untreated, it can affect your daily activities and reduce your quality of life. The pain may get worse if you experience persistent aching, burning or stinging pain, or stabbing pain from your neck to your arm or shoulder. Treating this condition requires a chief physician to rule out the cause of neck pain, such as cancer or infection, myelopathy or spinal cord injury.
