What Causes Neck Pain?

The neck is responsible for supporting the head and allowing it to rotate in different directions, which makes it vulnerable to injury. Approximately 20% of men and 30% of women will experience severe neck pain at some point in their lifetime. You don't have to live with neck pain call our office today and find out a treatment plan that works for you.

Should I See a Doctor About My Neck Pain?

You should see a doctor right away if you experience neck pain after an auto accident, a sports injury, or a fall. Minor neck pain should improve with self-care and rest, but if it doesn’t, you should call the Washington Center for Pain Management.

 


Other incidences when you should make an appointment include:


  • Your neck pain is severe or worsens, despite self-care
  • Pain doesn’t subside after several days
  • A headache accompanies your neck pain
  • Neck pain or tingling radiates down into the arms or legs
  • neck pain.

What Treatments Are Available for Neck Pain?

Treatment depends on the underlying cause of pain and where it originates, so treatment is different for everyone. The providers try to take the most conservative approach that’s effective for you.


Some of the methods our providers use:


  • Epidural steroid injections: inject steroids to minimize nerve swelling
  • Facet Joint Injections: helps to find and treat the pain
  • Nerve blocks: injections of anesthetics to calm nerve activity
  • Platelet-rich plasma (PRP) therapy: injecting your own blood components to promote healing
  • Stem cell therapy: injection of stem cells to regenerate tissues

Many other treatments are also available at the center to address neck pain. Your doctor can help you find the best path to relief. If you’re dealing with persistent neck pain, it’s time to contact the practice by phoning the office or requesting an appointment online.
