What It Feels Like
Neck pain can make even simple movements like turning your head or looking down uncomfortable.
It might start as stiffness after sleeping wrong, or a dull ache that spreads to your shoulders and upper back.
If the pain keeps returning or travels down your arms, it’s time to get it checked.
Common Symptoms
- Stiffness or tightness while turning or tilting your head.
- Dull ache that may radiate to shoulders or upper back.
- Headaches or tension around the base of the skull.
- Tingling, numbness, or heaviness in arms or hands.
- Muscle spasms or restricted neck mobility.

Whiplash or previous injury to the neck or spine
Weak neck or upper back muscles causing imbalance
