Cervical Pain Treatment in New Delhi

Expert diagnosis and personalized treatment by a DrNB Neurology specialist.

Overview

Cervical pain — pain originating from the neck — is increasingly common due to long hours of screen use, poor posture and age-related wear and tear of the cervical spine. Most cases settle with conservative treatment.

A neurologist's role is to identify when neck pain is associated with nerve compression, signalled by arm pain, tingling or weakness. Targeted treatment then prevents long-term nerve damage and almost always avoids the need for surgery.

Symptoms

Neck stiffness and pain
Pain radiating into shoulder or arm
Tingling or numbness in fingers
Headache from the back of the head
Weak grip or clumsiness
Pain worsened by certain neck positions
Reduced neck movement
Muscle spasms

Causes

Cervical Spondylosis

Age-related wear of cervical discs and joints.

Disc Prolapse

A bulging disc pressing on a nerve root.

Poor Posture

Prolonged forward head posture from screen use.

Muscle Strain

From sleep position, lifting or sudden movements.

Whiplash

Sudden neck movement from injury or accident.

Inflammatory Causes

Less common, but important to identify early.
