Pain in the neck is more than a way to describe that annoying kid down the block, or your boss when they are pressing for impossible deadlines. Neck pain is all too common, and can be crippling if severe. Sometimes you may wake up with a stiff neck, and other times it may be so severe that it is difficult to
look over your shoulder. Neck pain can be caused by a pinched nerve, trauma (such as whiplash), or muscle strain (caused by sleeping or being positioned in an awkward way).
