You may have neck pain and numbness down the arm. Sometimes we may be dealing with severe neck pain, and sometimes you may have neck stiffness. Sometimes we may have sharp neck pain and sometimes it may be dull achy neck pain. Or you might have neck pain that gives you a headache, called cervicogenic headache. You may even have a pinched nerve in the neck.
The pain may be caused from poor posture, spinal degeneration, a herniated disc in the neck, or a whiplash injury to the neck. Knowing what caused the pain is crucial to choosing the right treatment for your chronic neck pain.

Our Solutions for Chronic Neck Pain
After speaking with you we usually have an idea of what may be causing your chronic neck pain, however depending on the severity of the symptoms we will usually want to do several tests, which may include a nerve scan to see where nerves are being pinched and how badly they are being pinched, a digital motion X-Ray study showing your neck in neutral, bending forward and bending backwards, and some other orthopedic and neurological tests as indicated. Occasionally we need to do an MRI for more information.
