The most common cause of neck pain after an auto accident is whiplash. Neck pain can also be caused by arthritis, stress and working conditions. Some patients will experience a lot of symptoms, while others will experience only a few symptoms. Our chiropractic doctors will tailor their treatments depending on the needs of each patient. Additionally, irritation along the nerve pathways can cause pain into the shoulder, head, arm, and hand. Irritation of the spinal cord can cause pain into the legs and other areas below the neck. 

In some cases, other symptoms associated with the neck pain are even more problematic, such as: 

• Tingling, numbness, or weakness that radiates into the shoulder, arms, or fingers 
• Trouble with gripping or lifting objects 
• Problems with walking, balance, or coordination 
• Loss of bladder or bowel control. Neck pain might be minor and easily ignored, or it can be excruciating to the point where it interferes with important daily activities, such as sleep. The pain might be short-lived, come and go, or become constant.  
• While not common, neck pain can also be a signal of a serious underlying medical issue, such as meningitis, or cancer.
