Neck Pain

Indicates pain at the neck level.

To ensure neck movement and the support of the head, which is very heavy, these structures must perform very large movements, subjecting themselves to considerable stresses that can cause sudden or temporary or prolonged neck pain. Even incorrect posture can cause injury to these structures. An overload of the neck structures.
