Neck pains have many causes. While Physical Therapy Services in Kokomo, Indiana address the pain, uncovering its underlying cause will ensure the pain is effectively addressed. Here are some causes of neck pain:
- Muscle strains
Overusing the neck may happen even with an individual’s normal posture. Minor activities such as hunching over a computer or a smartphone can strain the neck muscles. Inappropriate reading postures such as reading in bed are also common culprits of muscle strain. - Worn joins
Neck joints are subject to deterioration alongside aging. A condition called osteoarthritis causes the cartilage between the bones to wear down. The body will then respond by forming bone spurs, affecting the joints’ motions and causing pain. - Injuries
Accidents or collisions cause a whiplash injury. This can strain the soft tissues of the neck, which leads to severe pain and discomfort when neglected.
