Back And Neck Care Center Helps Restore Limited Neck Range of Motion and Pain

What does neck pain do? It keeps you from repositioning your neck as you want. Pain is effective like that! It keeps us from doing things that could hurt. Ok, that is not all bad! But neck pain can bother more than just motion. It can disrupt daily living. Severna Park chiropractic at Back And Neck Care Center can help lessen neck pain and reestablish its normal motion.

NECK PAIN LIMITS MOTION

Not merely does neck pain limit cervical spine motion, it also requires compensatory motions to do what needs to be done. If the neck smarts when turning to the left, you won’t do that. That is a compensatory motion. Normal flexion/extension, lateral, and rotational motions have been documented in normal patients. (1) And if you think your capabiloity to reposition your neck affects your life, consider baseball pitchers! College baseball pitchers with limited neck motion during preseason were found to be at higher risk of game time loss as well as shoulder and elbow disability during the season. (2) That’s really life-changing for them and their life dreams! Know that your Severna Park chiropractor can know from a thorough clinical examination just how pain is affecting your normal range of motion and how to help you (your being a baseball player or not!) get it back.

NECK ISSUES INFLUENCE SLEEP APNEA

Another curious cervical spine finding is that prior cervical spondylosis – degenerative changes in the cervical spine that often happen with aging, resulting in vertebral bone degeneration, disc degeneration, bone spur formation and the like - and obstructive sleep apnea are related. Such sleep apnea is connected to cervical spine changes that tighten the airway space that happen with cervical spondylosis. (3) Cervical spondylosis is another spinal issue your Severna Park chiropractor know well.
