Neck and back pain care in McKinney
Neck pain, back pain and sciatica are among the most common reasons people visit the practice.
Why does neck pain feel so limiting?
Anyone who has had neck pain knows how much it gets in the way. Slight movement can hurt, especially right after an injury, and long-standing neck pain often turns into stiffness and a dull ache.
What causes neck and back pain?
MedlinePlus says muscle strain or tension often causes neck pain, usually from overuse such as sitting at a computer for too long, and that falls or accidents, including car accidents, are another common cause. Back pain can come from muscles, joints, discs or nerves.
Which problems does the practice see?
- Neck pain and stiffness
- Lower back pain and sciatica
- Disc injury and radiculopathy
- Tingling and numbness
- Pain after a car accident or sports injury
